"Rosenkreuzstilette Freudenstachel" is the sequel to "Rosenkreuzstilette", a level-based 2D side scrolling action game for PC.

Thousands of years have passed since "magic" was lost to the people. Now there are but a few who even know of its existence. Those who possessed magical abilities were faced with persecution.

As Freudia Neuwahl, Spritia's lifelong friend, you must ensure the safety of the surviving members of Rosenkreuzstilette, put an end to Schwarzkreuz and the Pope's oppression of the Magi, and bring Spiritia home...
