Energy is a side scrolling platform game by NCS based
on Ashe, an obscure PC-8801 Japanese game originally released by
Quasar Soft in 1988.
A powerful earthquake has released an army of mutant monsters
all over the city of Tokyo. A small group of humans survived and from
their underground hideout they decide to send a team to
investigate and fight the threat. The player takes control of
a young fighter with psionic powers (called 'ESP'), the
only known of his kind. He can use these unique phsychic powers to
also fire balls of energy, his only means of defense
against the various mutants and monsters that crawl
around the levels. The player also meets many supportive
characters throughout the game that offer clues about
the overall story.

Energy is a frustrating mess!
Ok, let me elaborate on that - it features a long
introduction sequence that I have never found any way
to stop, terrible graphics, incredibly slow screen-based scrolling,
and unresponsive controls.
Additionally, although this
won't prevent you to play the game, all the text
is in Japanese. Oh, and I was going to forget,
there is no way to save your progress and
you have only one life. Deal with it.
Only the soundtrack stands out as arguably the only
'good' thing about this game. Energy is
famously believed to be the ugliest game ever released for
the PC Engine system, and I can only but
agree. Avoid it.
