Evil Stone is a 1990 arcade game released by Spacy Industrial, Ltd. It was created using the Taito L System arcade hardware.[1]
Gameplay
The game is played from an overhead perspective, with the player controlling a character jumping through a grid of fixed-distance floating stone platforms to reach and defeat a boss within a time limit, fighting demons and other enemies along the way in a beat 'em up style.[1][2]
Reception
Because Evil Stone was created using Taito's arcade hardware without an official license, it is considered a very rare collector's item.[1][3] GiantBomb's Drew Scanlon rated the game as the third best title he played in 2020.[2] Evil Stone has received criticism for its very high degree of difficulty,[4][3] as well as for the poor quality of its English translation from the original Japanese.[5][4]

This game actually reminds me a lot of Catherine: it’s a basic gameplay loop (jump from platform to platform and avoid/beat up enemies) framed in a setting that is way more involved than you would expect from the simple mechanics. But instead of relationship drama, Evil Stone throws you into a grotesque fantasy world to fight against horse people and demons with prominent butts.
