Apidya II is a German-born, Japanese-style insect-based shmup with no prequel. You play as a prince who has willingly undergone transformation into a wasp to seek an antidote to his wife's black magic curse dilemma. Confused? It doesn't matter; it's a surreal, spellbinding experience either way. Animation, graphics and sound are impeccable, their aggregate undeniably elevating the package to Amiga royalty status. As entertaining to absorb through the senses without a joystick as it is to play personally.
