About this game

In Chronos, you control a spacecraft trapped in the Mystical Dimension and must fight your way through six constantly scrolling levels. The stages feature varied enemies, including balls, ships, and spinning dice.

Progress is complicated by barriers, force fields, immovable blockades, blind tunnels, and maze-like routes. Bonus tokens appear in sequences that increase in value, rewarding careful collection from the beginning of each sequence.
