Golden Axe description
Another classic arcade genre, this time - hails from the consoles. Or rather, with all the dearly beloved Shogi, that's where the game series "Golden Axe" was born, matured and lived up to four seem parts. But before us - ported to the PC many years ago the original first part. A flourish, as usual in this kind of toys, very complicated don't Shine - well, there is a Golden Axe, well, I decided some solobaric named Death Adder her to clean up, well, good going guys this Axe back... this is not important. But the main thing here - simple and artless action, that is action. And here it here - for-VA-Lis. After five, maximum ten minutes of the game, I want to take the war hammer more, to put on the skin papachristou, and with the inarticulate roar of barbaric to go to do Good, Justice and other garbage of the same kind. And this is assuming that the toy appeared on computers thirteen years ago! Slot machines - and before. One word: rarity.
Title screen Choose your destiny... In game shot
To play, by the way, it is possible for one of the 3 representatives of the League of Good Guys and defenders of the World from Evil, or for the barbarian nicknamed Secureboot (Axe Battler) fighting, however, the sword (well, how else Axe Battler translate that?) - good middling, balancing between magic (yeah, there it is, my dear - in the form of a periodically call down the wrath of God) and mere scuffle; or a brutal dwarven dedulki Gillie Thunder Head (Gilius Thunderhead), a lover of processing others ' skulls with his huge axe - the magic-secant pigage not much, but muzzle cleaning very effectively; or for the slender girl by the name of Tyrese Flair (Tyris Flare) - fragile girl with great magical potential.By the way, very characteristic, indicating platformers-arcade origins of the game - a couple of successful attacks on suprotivniku leads to combos, which are very villainous harm health and make life much easier for the player.
Using the purple thing against enemies is a definite advantage Surrounded by two warriors near the village Female warriors are dangerous female warriors riding dragons are extremely dangerous!
In addition to the standard welcome "the sword on the bonce", still available are: blow basely crept behind the enemy, throw him to hell, a kind of "charging attack" - that is a blow, before applying which have to wait a bit - "get"; well, leap is also not forgotten.
Let's burn these poor enemies! Having jumped over the broken bridge
Periodically you will meet opponents, deftly prancing on some animals - the so-called "Bessarione". These comrades horses should knock down, then to sit in the vacant seat and crush opponents with his hooves, poison fire breath and severely beat his tail - though you can also get for their heroic turnips and with a whistle to fly out of the saddle, and then Bessarion run off the screen, offended at the best feelings.
Separate song - the bonus levels. They are not very much, and their essence is the following: you rush past some guys with bags over shoulders, your task is to smack as many as possible of their number (the time is limited, the number of men, too) on the head, from which they will be made a moment of kindness, and they will throw you in something useful, like mana or fruit what...
The graphics in the game for 90 years of the last century, a surprisingly pleasant sound - worthy enemies - numerous and original, especially the bosses, very original companions sometimes come across...
