Description

With deep exploration and epic quests, players will take the role of Jason, King of Iolchis, and battle alongside iconic mythological heroes including Hercules, Achilles, Atalanta and others. As Jason grows from young king to true legend, set sail aboard the Argo and explore the vast Aegean – a dynamic world of islands filled with shining cities, lush jungles and deep forests.

Gamers will leave their mark on ancient Greece as they engage in heart-pumping, lethal, blood-spurting combat against hordes of enemy warriors, ruthless beasts and truly formidable mythological creatures. Whether Jason is lopping off heads or cutting warriors in half with his sword or if Hercules is wrestling with giant beasts, the intense action in Rise of the Argonauts will leave players wanting for their next confrontation.

Like all true heroes of Greece, the gods follow Jason on his quests. Jason will gain the favour of the gods and earn special abilities, but his actions may please some gods and displease others. Earning a god's favour will grant players powers within the god's domain, but drawing a god's wrath may cause them to inflict a torment on the heroes at the worst possible moment.

Review by Chris on 6th November, 2009
"A fun game, but no real challenge"
The game was visually attractive, but had no real challenges. Once you learn to block, no fight is difficult. The action is broken up by the extended dialogue, which causes a quick game to drag.

"Great story but a little bit easy"
Rise of the Argonauts was fun to play but was not very hard. Some good things were the inteactable storyline where you can choose responses and ask questions, nice locations to play through and a battle system that is easily picked up and can string together some nice moves. Some of the let downs were it is not challenging for an experienced gamer and you could not deviate from the storyline at all, you were required to go where the next objective was. I believe if you could backtrack a bit and go and find adventure and fights off the main storyline this game would have been a hundred times better.

"Interesting"
Yeah this game isnt too bad at all! Its kinda fun and the fighting gameplay controls are pretty easy to get use to. I must admit I only brought this game because it was on sale and would pay $129 for it! If you like this game I suggest you also buy Golden Axe, you can buy the 2 as a combo which is good and a reason why I buy games from mighty ape! this game is worth giving a go.

"Worthwhile playing"
Enjoyed the game - would've been better if there was
more fighting and less talking though. Overall worthwhile having a go.
