Kind of a remake of Barbarian (not the Psygnosis game) with better graphics (like Psygnosis games).

The parallax was impressive but this didn't save the game from being a standard sideways beat'em up! I seem to remember never getting past those big giants and giving up soon after!

The use of parallax on every line gives the game a bit of a 3D look, but it's so choppy and badly-implemented that the developers probably shouldn't have bothered. The colors are also far too bright and have too much contrast - black, lime green, and white look awful when used together.

The game itself is also pretty bad. Fighting the enemies is annoying enough with the terrible controls, but it's even worse that you can simply walk through them, breezing through the short levels and finishing them all too quickly.

What a waste of time.

Apparently this had the most parallax scrolling ever at the time. Despite the much lauded parallax effect the scrolling is jerky and choppy which makes it seem like it was an Atari ST port.
Haven't played it though...

Decent parralax scrolling and background graphics can't save this game.

Terrible, terrible, terrible! Controls!

The sound quality is okay, though the actual sounds or sound effects themselves are not very good, especially that clucking chicken!

Don't be decieved by the screen-shots, this is nothing more than an ultra-crappy cross between "Shadow of the beast" and "Barbarian II", minus everything that made these two good.

Please to un-enjoy.
