You are Perseus, a superhero from Greek Mythology. To save your mother, you are forced to embark on an impossible quest. Your mission: to defeat Medusa, the monster with snakes for hair, razor-sharp claws, and a gaze so horrifying that it turns people to stone. Assemble your magical weapons and utilise your extraordinary strength. Every moment, your life is at risk.
