Interesting action-platformer game which reminds me somewhat of Leander (AKA Legend of Galahad). Choose from 3 mighty heroes and embark on a quest to rid the world of the deadly Manax, collecting all kinds of magic potions and items along the way.
Each of the three characters on offer has three attacks: standard, powerful, plus one when crouching. Crouching also instigates an automatic block, which deflects enemy blows and also causes certain enemies to turn around and go the other way. Of the three, the huntress has the longest jump, plus gets a really cool crossbow when purchasing the armour upgrade; this is the character I chose for this video.
This is the kind of game where you'll want to run into walls to check if there might be a hidden passageway or secret. There's a level warp hidden at the end of the first scene in level 1, which I've added as a chapter at the end of the video.
Some additional notes:
1) The two gems above the player's health bar represent your attack power. Collecting mystical sparkles upgrades your attack power, causing the gems to glow; dying will lose an attack charge.
2) Using a Midas ring turns any on-screen enemy into a bag of silver. A good strategy to earning cash is to herd the goblin enemies using your block move, then using a ring to spawn tons of cash; it's something I do a number of times throughout the video.

Absolutely loved this game. Played it all the time when I was a kid. I absolutely adore that goofy item collection/drop sound.
Man fantasy games in the 1990s were really ahead of their time.
Do you remember that game for sega....it was too down, like sci-fi type, action game. But it had book style RPG elements? Like you could modify your body and stuff, and by bionic parts? I CANNOT remember the name, and so i cannot find it to look up. Someone MUST know!
@@jrr7031 shadowrun
Thats it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are my hero!!!!!!!!!! How did you know?!?!?! I only was able to borrow it from a friend for a week. Not enough to get really into it but, I freakin loved it. Now i know the name, I can find it again.
@@christinalaw3375 movies and PC/console fantasy games of the time had this cool sexy/risqué vibe to them. Usually bikini clad Amazon’s and Schwarzenegger esque bodybuilder warriors. Now the focus seems to be on “realism” which makes no sense since it’s all fantasy anyway.
This is totally not ahead of it's time. It is very 90s/80s barbarian. Just like rastan, sword of sodan and golden axe.
The EA logo back when they have a soul.
Back when they were too classy to do something so crass as abbreviate themselves.
@@gigaslave You mean like making unofficial cartridges so they don't have to pay royalties to Sega ?
When they did Road Rash, a very fun racing trilogy games.

You truly get that "more with less" feeling when looking at these graphics and animations.
wtf are u talking about?
@@Mr_x_19922 dumb dumb: "less is more" or "more with less" used to express the view that a minimalist approach to artistic or aesthetic matters is more effective
@@thezerne You used too many syllables to describe it to him. :) Don't bother.
Your imagination fills in the gaps.
@@Mr_x_19922 Smoothskin with da smooth brain.
You really know your way around this game!
I studied a couple of guides for the recording - I figure the audience doesn't want to watch a lot of aimless wandering around 😉
This looks rather lush. Never saw it before but reckon I would have LOVED it back in the day
Just discovered this game today. Played it all day and beat it. What a friggin gem. I had never even heard of it.
I think its funny the male barbarian keeps passing his fingers over the blade on his animation lol
and so... 30 years later I found out the name of the first megadrive game I ever saw in my life in a toy store and I never saw or played it again because I never knew its name and it never passed through my hands, not even luckily... this dissencounter survived the time of hype of roms and emulators! ...and now it appears without any worries on my UA-cam reel x'0
Woah! Why am I just learning about this game now? I would have easily rented or bought this back in the day.
I so love it that armor shows on your character when you purchase it! And the ladder climbing animation is so cute...=D
Yeah...climb those ladders...
This is gaming!! No open world, grind fest. Just pure fun, and the era of when consoles generated there own sound with actual sound processers.
"Everywhere she went, she was confronted by ghouls; some of them covered in metal, some of them covered in fire. Even the floating head of Medusa tried to kill her."
"Yeah, but what was she wearing?"
this game has a great, simplistic appeal to it
Impressive playthrough. More impressive (though it probably didn't feel like it when this game was new) is how much this seems like a "souls-like" game...The ability to block seems positively revolutionary for the times. The tea bagging of the dragon at the end was a nice touch. 🤣🤣
Soulslike? Really dude? Dark souls didnt invent dungeon crawling hack and slash action, you know.
And maybe other games had a crouch block before this (shinobi sequels.)
The music in some games 1985-1995 are fantastic
Great graphics, music, and just play well bro!
My favourite Sega game ever. Cant get enought of it. Its to me, just an epic game. :D
era of true sound, no PCM mathematics, no emulations for PCM, lovely
Los graficos son geniales, la paleta de colores aun con las limitaciones de la Genesis son brutales, cualquiera pensaria que es una conversion a la Neo Geo
Si estos juegos hubiesen tenido mas golpes y no solo dos con la espada sino combos, almenos hasta 5 combinaciones, este juego (y otros) hubiese sido top hasta el dia de hoy
Whoa, baby! Whoever this warrior woman is on this old-school video game is, she’s smokin’ hot!
I like that Charleston Heston is leading this crew into battle.
Never played this game but already knew what it would sound like before even playing it 😂
I wanna cry I miss the 90s lol
Do any of you remember a side scrolling medieval fantasy RPG, where you would have armor, and each hit the enemy landed on you knocked a piece off? And you could move the joystick up and down really fast to create this forcefield in front of you? It was usually just used to get through parts of the level where lots of projectiles were coming at you.
Fantastic video, as always! I'd love to see you play through this game with the other characters if you'd ever care to.
never heard of any of these retro video game youtuber reviewers talk about this,pretty cool game
Great job as always. Nice the Midas spell turns a group of clustered enemies into needed cash. Shame you wouldn't be able to see your Big Bad Final Boss before she became a dragon. Would have been great to see a transform sequence. You turned your swordswoman into a crossbow babe, great for distance battles.
Best 16 bits end! ♥️
💓💪💪
Such memories.
I used to dislike the genesis/megadrive sound (nintendo kid here) but now I've come to see its appeal. It's a very vaporwavy, blade runner-esque vibe.
Thanks for showing us games we missed as children, now with our current perspective 😊.
yes the games that were programmed well sound great. FM synthesis requires some care
There is nothing to dislike there.
Un juegazo 😉 si pasé tardes en su grata compañía!!!😊
Amazing game!
legend...
I love this game
I can't believe this was made by EA! Before the dark times, before the greed.
some top lvl music!
AWESOME !!!!!!
This game is much harder than it looks
The music still hits hard today
Still hits hard
love that GODS feel
Very good classic game and reminds me to Rastan but with better combat and block mechanics 👍😎.
Super hard game!
muy buen juego yo lo jugue infinidad de veces en mi sega genesis..lo mejor es cuando llegas al dragon final. en este gameplay en el primer mundo le falto saltar a la lava y encontrar el cofre oculto, intentalo la proxima ves que lo juegues... grasias por el recuerdo de este bonito juego creo que lo jugare de nuevo...
Wish great games like this were on Steam instead of Bubsy.
Juegazo!!!😉💪
My childhood
It looks and plays exactly like Gods.
4:15 Level 1.2 b4 in the lava, when you have to jump the rocks (b4 the lower part with the chest followed by the fire guys), if you stay on the fifth rock it will send you flying in the air where if you fight your way all the way to the left, you get a blast stick n a potion.
4:45 the last rock in the lava (closer than the others) you can ride down safely into the lava to get a chest
This game is epic! Ive beatbit with everyone but the wizard
Nice game
Love to see female Rastan in Action!
🔥🔥🔥
greed has left behind a legacy of dormant EA IPs that may never see the light again, like the Desert Strike and Road Rash properties that only got re-released on PSP.
the game is good, I say yeah.
This must be Rastan's would-be wife.
This game looks amazing. Why is it only know that I learn of its existence?
i only found it because it has good drum samples
I rented this a lot but then forgot it's name. I've been trying to find it for almost 20 years now.
I PASSED IT
COOL !
The lady is wearing actual ancient attire and not a bakkini
Don´t comment, don´t comment, don´t comment!
Ah, to hell with it!
Geez, not even Elvira is such showoff with her natural two D weapons! This one even has white tip! But seriously, you are much better in platformers than I ever was :)
What if Conan the Barbarian, Red Sonja, and Merlin fight together against evil?
16-bit glory
I didn't have this game, but I did have Bram Stoker's Dracula, and this strikes me as a way better version of that game. I know there are probably many closer comparisons I could draw, but I was mainly a sports gamer.
In my opinion, this is a game about ancient Greece.
I'm not understanding the mechanic by which you turn a bunch of enemies into items, how does that work?
i find it interesting that when you strike a skeleton, it spills blood. wait, what?
Also, they move without any muscle.
@@JohnnyReb1976 its God's work. In this case the God is the Designer/Programmer.
Totally Tarna from Heavy Metal 1
Side scrolling Golden axe
Music reminds me of Strider
Lo q busq este juego x dios gracias
in this game the wizard and the woman is cool to play but barbarian guy is bit of a challenge and his upgrade doesnt feel...upgrade except the damage part
Dat body...
Jogo fantastico! Se eu tivesse que apontar um defeito, eu diria que acho ele um pouco longo.
Why on hell dying enemies burst as fireworks? 😳
Is it me, or did your remix the music / OST from the Bitmap Bros game, Gods?
So fucking cool game ever
my wizard was only one level away from victory???
5 y/o me was always a failure. a disapointment to everyone.cant even play video games right.
21:20
Never seen this one.
Remember me Leander / entity amiga
Man this game was hard as shit 😂
EA... what happened? You were trustworthy before...
The year of release ? Anyone knows ?
1993
Damn, the game certainly doesn't give you much time to react to enemies, given how little you can see in front of you when you walk.
👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Wow, the level design looks terribly confusing.
Its a game that encourage exploration. There are secret rooms, and part of the fun of the game is finding out which way to go and where hidden chests/items are. Should dungeons be "easy" to complete? Where's the fun in that?
@@Melvinvanharn I guess, it's just "not my cup of tea". I liked the game "Warlock" on the Sega Genesis, there were also a lot of hidden rooms in the castles, but imho it was better implemented. I guess it is the constant changing between different rooms/screens, that I don't like. But glad, that you enjoy it. Overall the game doesn't look bad.
A Sega Mega Drive game getting 60k views in one single month?
How did that happen? haha
Anyway, I love the Mega Drive and always will, cool name too
rastan saga :)
🙏💪😍💕
Очень похожа на пиратов черной воды
Hace dias que estoy enredado en este nivel 58:00
Jodo...se queda a gusto el mago al final limpiando mierda del mundo...😂
I would trade graphics for a better sound chip... those blips and boops are disappointing.
