Now you know the story but still have no idea what type of game you are up against. To be vaguely descriptive, Herc's Adventures is a combination action, adventure, side scroller, and platform game. Although it does not fit more into any one of these categories for various reasons, it does borrow from all of them. The gameplay of Herc's Adventures is a non-linear beat-the-badguys-and-get-rewarded formula. When I say it is non-linear, this is because you are free to roam the land until an obstacle blocks your path.

You don't really have a set path to follow. However, to progress with the game, you do need do certain things and go certain places. You are free to explore each open area for weapons or other goodies as long as you like, but you will find everything is quite accessible with minimal effort. You have a choice of three main characters you can choose to play. The first, and obviously best, is Hercules himself. He is strong enough to lift houses, but is rather slow-moving. Next, you can play Atlanta.

She fires arrows—which is ideal for long range attacks—but she is physically weak. The last character available is Jason.

He is a cross between the assets of both Hercules and Atlanta, and he carries a cool slingshot weapon. One of the coolest parts of Herc's Adventures is the two player simultaneous mode. This allows you to pick any two of the three characters and work together to finish the game. But, as we all know, there are problems with two player simultaneous games.

The biggest problem is the waiting for the other player to catch up. I hate waiting. When I am ready to go, I want to go. I found myself sitting at the edge of the screen waiting for the other player. You also run into problems when one player falls down a ledge. If you are walking on a narrow path and one player is not being careful enough and falls, this leaves the other player up on the path. The only choice is to fall down the hill with other player and start the upward climb again.

A warp of some sort would have been nice. There is one last thing worth mentioning in Herc's Adventures. You don't die. Well, that is not really accurate. You die but you have a chance to fight your way through the world of the dead to get back into the upper world. If you make it through, you will continue on. If you die in the underworld, the game is over. This was a really innovative idea that fits well with the mythology behind the game, but it has a flaw.

When playing in two player mode, only the person that dies in the above world is sent down to the underworld. That means that you sit and watch the other play for minutes which can seem like hours at a time until they can join you up top again.

This was frustrating because as soon as a person goes to the underworld and dies again, they go deeper into the underworld. I just don't like sitting around doing nothing when playing a two player game.

There is also no shortage of interaction with characters along the way. Plenty of enemies get in your way to try and stop you from completing your quest.

Also, you will find people that will help you become more powerful, which allows you to access areas that you otherwise would not have been able to get into. Items such as garbage, peppers, and boar traps can be found as used as weapons. There is plenty of different stuff going on and available throughout your adventure.

I liked the cartoon-like graphics in this game. I felt right at home battling through the lands of ancient Greece. The characters all had great personalities and were easily recognizable. The enemies were also well drawn and thought out.

The graphics will not win any awards, but they are perfect for this game. Herc's Adventures is a pretty decent game. Once you have finished downloading Retroarch , extract the downloaded.
