Karous (pronounced karasu) is a video game by Milestone Inc. intended for the Sega NAOMI. The game is a vertical scrolling shooter, similar in this fashion to Radilgy. A Dreamcast version was released in March 2007.

Famitsu has given the Dreamcast game a review of 6, 6, 6, 7[citation needed], whilst Edge gave it 6 out of 10[1]. This game marks the last official 3rd party release for the Sega Dreamcast platform.

On April 8, 2008, a Nintendo Wii version of the game was released in Japan, titled Milestone Shooting Collection: Karous Wii. The collection includes both Radilgy and Chaos Field as extras. So far there are no plans to release this compilation in North America. [1]
