A Walk Along the Wall is a challenging & Lovecraft-inspired boss-rush top-down twin-stick shooter.Save your wife & doom humanity.
Driven by grief at the passing of your partner, search for the Book of Eibon.Translate its passages. Make the sacrifice.
Bring her back and die trying.
Master stolen wisdom. Let logic scatter.
