About Zeno Clash
In the land of Zenozoik, the city of Halstedom is ruled by a powerful clan, one  which Ghat has betrayed by committing a terrible sin.  Now, Ghat's brothers and  sisters are pursuing him and his companion Deadra through strange and twisted lands, beyond the boundaries of the sane to the ends of the world.  What was Ghat's crime and why did he commit it?  The bare-knuckled brawl to reach the truth has just begun.

Guns and melee weapons offer additional power and tactical  options.
