Monster Maulers is an arcade fighting game where you battle against monsters in one-on-one battle.

Also known as Kyukyoku Sentai Dadandarn in Japanese.

Story:

The three main protagonists are Kotetsu, Anne and Eagle, members of the “Ultimate Task Force”. A trio of evil villains known as the Happy Droppers unleashes a swarm of monsters to terrorize countries of the world, sending the three heroes on a mission to end the disaster and defeat the evil masterminds.

There are two endings in the game. The good ending has the antagonists apprehended, while the bad ending shows them having escaped.
