Darius Burst: Chronicle Saviours
Dariusburst: Chronicle Saviours is a horizontal scrolling shooter developed by Pyramid and published by Taito. It forms part of the Darius series.. Like previous Darius games, Dariusburst is an offbeat sci-fi shooter set in outer space with aquatic-themed (typically fish-shaped) robotic enemies. In keeping with tradition, the game also features branching paths instead of the linear progression found in most video games Limited Run physical release.

Review coverage
Critic signal strength
Numeric critic scoring uses full scored reviews once available. Review-in-progress scores act as temporary early signal only until full review scores exist. Unscored reviews still count as coverage, but they are not included in the critic average.
