The note tells of the Amulet of Nine Lives-a mystical artifact that grants its wearer near-immortality. In the prison cell, waiting for his execution, he finds a note and a piece of a map hidden in the wall.
It is Monolith's second release after Blood, which was released that same year in May.Ī famous cat pirate, Captain Nathaniel Joseph Claw, is imprisoned by the Cocker-Spaniards (a dog species, a pun on Cocker Spaniel) after they attack and sink his ship. Claw is a 2D side-scroller platform video game published by Monolith Productions in 1997 about an anthropomorphic pirate cat who sets on a quest to find an ancient amulet while fighting enemies and solving puzzles.
