The game - Shadow of the Beast - Atari Lynx | LYNX

This is translated as the Shadow of the Animal, which you are.

Brief background: when you were still young, you (Aarbron) were taken away from your parents (in other words, kidnapped) and enslaved into the clan of some Beast Lord fanatic. You grew up on drugs and used you as a six, a messenger. Once, having done your work, you passed by a sacrifice. Accidentally seeing the face of the poor victim, it seemed to you that you had already seen him somewhere. Yes. It was your father! A memory came to you, but it was too late - your father was stabbed to death. You vowed to avenge everything and escaped from the temple.

A popular game in its day, so I wouldn't tell you to skip it.
