| history | Golden Axe II (c) 1993 Sega. Not long after the malign reign of the Death Adder has ended, another evil rises. The peace of the land has again been threatened, this time by 'Dark Guld', who was supposed to be imprisoned but apparently is not. He has instead now gotten his hands on the Golden Axe, and is using it for his own nasty purposes, and with his minions is causing much chaos. So once more, Ax-Battler, the fierce barbarian; Tyris-Flare, the fearless Amazon; Gilius Thunderhead, the ferocious dwarf, rise up to deal with the oppression, with their might and magic, and recover the Golden Axe. - TECHNICAL - Sega Mega Play hardware Main CPU : 68000 (@ 7.670442 Mhz), (2x) Z80 (@ 3.57954 Mhz) Sound Chips : YM3438 (@ 7.670442 Mhz), (2x) SN76496 (@ 3.57954 Mhz) Screen orientation : Horizontal Video resolution : 320 x 224 pixels Screen refresh : 60.00 Hz Palette colors : 96 Players : 2 Control : 8-way joystick Buttons : 3 => [A] Attack, [B] Jump, [C] Magic - TRIVIA - This is a slightly harder version of the Sega Mega Drive version and is released around two years after the original : * Two lives instead of three. * Two units of health instead of three. * In the Mega Drive version, you have to hold the A button to use more powerful magic.
