Acceptable
This game had pretty good animations and graphics like the epic fail achievement and such. The only thing is you should be able to pick your difficulty for all those wussies that complain about it. Like the people who pretend to be offended because they suck at this game like the thing about degrading women when they don't even understand the story line.
Great game
This is a pretty amazing avoid game. It really requires the player to know the game well to distinguish the obstacles and the way to avoid them. That's what made this game cool. I also noticed that the game was well designed in such a manner that it's never really impossible to dodge everything that's thrown at you. But there are flaws in the game...
First of all, I don't know if it was just the version I had played (maybe you updated the game recently) but it seemed absolutely impossible to get past 1 minute of pursuit. The rider catches up to her even when I'm going at full speed.
Secondly, in level 5, there's so many things being yelled out at the same time that it becomes too difficult to distinguish what you have to dodge. So often I find myself asking questions such as "Where are the arrows coming from?" or "Was that noise from a duelist or a rider?" For the arrows, it would be nice to have some sort of icon indicating where they are coming from and for the rider chasing Hippolyta, it would be nice if he would SHUT UP and if there would be an icon indicating if he was still chasing her.
For the most part, the game was great though. Awesome graphics, animation, music/sound effects and great design/concept to hold it all together.
Difficult is right.
Good game, great animation and voice acting.
You warn that its hard and boy is it!
Only thing I didn't much like was that sometimes archers would shoot just as I was jumping an obstacle and no matter how I pushed the button I couldn't block the arrows.
Other than that, if you can handle pain enjoy this game. :)
Great and challenging
Nice to play a game which is challenging yet still possible, and with lots of unlockable things to keep it interesting.
PRO TIPS - READ
Good game, good reaction tests. READ THIS IF YOU NEED HELP
-When there's a warning about arrows, click the corresponding defense button RIGHT AFTER THE LAST WORD OF THE WARNING.
-You cant kill cavalry. Period.
-In later levels, you HAVE to speed up alot. Later obstacles become very long, and the cavalry that moves from behind cannot be killed-only outrun after a certain distance.
-DO NOT LOWER QUALITY. THE LAG SAVES YOUR ASS LATER ON, WHEN CONSECUTIVE ATTACKS (2~4 IN A ROW) COME UP.
-warning sounds of front cavalry: "it's you and me!" "Die!"
-warning sounds of hopilie (spearmen): "Come up then!" "Go to hell!" "For honor and glory!"
-warning sounds for peasants: "Where are you going?!' "You're dead, slave!"
