Willow

From: Capcom

Year: 1988

Format: Arcade


The long, action packed, journeys of Willow

Comments:

An action-platform game based closely on the plot of the film. It includes a lot of the movie's set pieces including the wagon chase sequence. You play as Willow in the first stage, Madmartigan in the second, Willow in the third etc. Willow has the ability to shoot fire balls whereas Madmartigan has his sword. Throughout the levels there are opportunities to spend the coins that vanquished enemies drop. You can buy everything from a long energy bar and more powerful weapons to magic repelling rings. The graphics are good and colourful, the sprites are well animated too. A great tie-in arcade game.

Comments: Reasonable RPG with you playing Willow. The music is okay but the graphics haven't aged well. Was probably good in it's day.
