About

Title Translation: “Sacre Bleu” means “Holy Blue.”

In this hack-and-slash musketeer adventure titled “Sacre Bleu,” you escape from prison using a steampunk blunderbuss. You’ll master bullet-time combat, navigate through steam-powered platforming levels, and indulge in the most entertaining pretend French you can find!

Assume the position of the captain of the French Musketeers, suddenly finding yourself imprisoned within the fortress of La Bastille! Accusations of deceit have landed you in this predicament, but fear not! You will be aided by the ingenious inventor Josephine and her latest creation – a steam-powered blunderbuss. Together, you must navigate through perilous corridors and engage in thrilling combat to clear your name and escape from captivity.

As a gaming enthusiast, I delight in wielding my blunderbuss and an array of weapons that transform each battle into a graceful, slow-motion, aerial dance. My dedication to mastery is evident as I vanquish adversaries, striving for the loftiest combat scores. This accomplishment grants me access to more challenging levels, where my swordsmanship and skills are put to the ultimate test.
