The eternal flame that kept the evil spirits out of the village has been stolen. The forest has closed over the road. And Sango, who is thunder, takes up his axe. Sango: The Thunder God is a painted 2D action-platformer built on Yoruba mythology. Fight through four worlds and twenty levels, bring down four guardians, and call the storm itself onto your enemies. WIELD THE THUNDER A three-hit axe chain that ends in a heavy blow, a ground slam from the air, and a dash that puts you out of reach. Hold the strike to throw a lightning bolt. Then the ultimates: Call the Storm darkens the sky and hammers everything on screen with a dozen bolts; Ruin detonates fire that throws enemies back and leaves them burning. FOUR WORLDS, FOUR GUARDIANS The Evil Forest, where the flame was carried, held by Oluina, the Keeper of the Flame. The Poisoned Wellspring, where the river runs black and Okuodo, the Drowned Spirit, floods the arena. The Warlord's Stronghold, whose gate has never opened from outside, where Jagunika charges, faster the angrier he gets. And Beyond the Mountains, a climb no one has made, guarded by Oluokuta, his boulders and his spears. Every boss has its own phases, a roar, and an arena that turns against you. A STORY TOLD PROPERLY A twelve-panel animated prologue and a cutscene before every world, narrated by a Yoruba elder's voice. The Wise One waits in every level with a word of advice and a piece of the story. Enemies follow you between ledges, birds dive, snakes strike, boulders roll. THE REAL MYTHOLOGY, SOURCED Sango's axe is the ose Sango: carved wood with twin blades, drawn from museum collections. Collect 32 scroll cards through the levels; each carries a fact about Sango, Oyo and the Yoruba world and names its source on the card, from Samuel Johnson's History of the Yorubas to UNESCO, the Brooklyn Museum and the Met. An artefact gallery holds eleven museum pieces. The villains are original creations, so no known orisa is cast as a villain. THE UNENDING STORM Finish the story to unlock Survival: endless waves in a shifting arena, and a best wave to beat. GROW INTO THE THUNDER Five milestone upgrades across the journey: a quicker storm, a wider ruin, a dash that cuts out of a swing, twin bolts. Elite enemies guard the later fights, every world hardens the ones you know, and three difficulties, Novice, Warrior and Thunder god, set the pace. MADE FOR YOUR HANDS Touch controls designed for landscape play, full controller support, and separate accessibility settings for screen shake, flash and time effects. Fully playable offline, with no ads, no account and no in-app purchases. Developed by a solo Nigerian developer at Xiden Games. ## Is Sango safe?
