This dark figure has diabolical plans for captured scientist, Dr. Hammond, and his War Department weapons of mass destruction.

Agent 236 has been dispatched to launch a rescue mission. Of course, nothing ever goes as planned. Our hero finds himself on the way to Hammond Castle, Dr. Hammond's research facility on a remote island. The Phantom Shadow's trap has been sprung.
