Created by INSIDE SYSTEM, The Legend of Dark Witch 2 is a 2D action story sequel to The Legend of Dark Witch. True to its predecessor, The Legend of Dark Witch 2 retains its simple controls and enough challenges to satisfy the completist. Players have eight stages to choose from and must use SHOTs to make their way through a variety of obstacles to reach the boss enemy. Within each stage there are hidden Pura Syega, which are helpful to power up player characters. Use "Tres" to adjust your statistics finely, and customise technical skills to not only increase power, but also add new abilities. Using new forbidden items allows for a wider variety of gameplay, too.

The nation of Germa, located in the east, has become an unparalleled force in magical research. By far their most feared asset is the group known as "Ich," consisting of their top researchers. Germa sends Ich to neighboring nation Liana to continue their research in secret. This alarming move by Germa attracts the attention of Zizou Olympia. She descends upon Liana and defeats eight members of Ich, including an ill-tempered small girl, a military veteran, a familiar ditzy teen genius, a robot alchemist, a trendy "big sis" type, a drunken mad scientist, a strange philosopher, and a playful beastwoman. After defeating Ich, Zizou creates a plan for infiltrating Germa's castle; she enlists the help of an elite student, a moody fairy, an information broker, and the nation of Rasil's most fearsome warrior. With their help, Zizou arrives at Vilhelm Castle and encounters Empress Franzer the Fifth. Zizou defeats Franzer in combat, but a resilient Franzer taps into the power of Syega and becomes even stronger. Even with her newfound power, Franzer again loses to Zizou. Franzer reluctantly obeys when Zizou tells her to end her meddling, marking the end of Germa's aggression.
