Monday Morning MAME Club: Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder

FROM Wiki: “Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder is a side-scrolling arcade hack ‘n’ slash game released in 1992 by Sega. It was the first 32-bit game in the series. Despite its high quality and popularity, as of 2009, the game remains arcade exclusive.

Only Gilius Thunderhead makes a return, riding the back of new character, Goah the giant. The rest of the cast is all new and includes Sternblade the barbarian, Dora the female Centaur, and Little Trix, a young elf lad who carries a pitch fork. The main enemy is once again Death Adder.

The game is an overall improvement on the original with better sound, graphics, and gameplay. As well as introducing multiple paths to the franchise, the magic aspect was adjusted. Though still found in the classic Golden Axe pots, the magic spells did not increase in power with the number of pots collected but required a set number to work. The Revenge of Death Adder was the only Golden Axe game in which one of the magic attacks was not offensive, as Trix grew apple trees with fruit that replenished health.”
