Golden Axe is awesome because it's an imaginative action video game series, with key fantasy elements inspired by the role playing tabletop games that were rising in popularity at that time at it's core, but it's also a side scrolling action arcade style beat em up (like streets of rage), it's co-op, up to a total of 3 players, your characters each have their own unique magic abilities and special attacks / combos, there's real actual choices (which path to take), that you have answer to make it to your destination. I could blab on and on about it's great qualities, but I'm sure that most people won't read this. Either way, thanks, it was nice to play this game again.

It's a classic a great one at that, remember the good old days where I'd be around 5 years old playing this on the megadrive, you've done a great job of bringing it back. Although I will admit the controls are terrible especially for people with bigger hands, if you could rescale them manually I wouldn't have a problem at all.

Golden Axe was one of my favorite arcade games of all time. This (adapted to Android from the Genesis port) *could* be a great game and nostalgia fix, except that the "joypad" control is almost impossible to use accurately. The player character moves so slowly across the screen in response to the controls that it's an exercise in frustration to do much of anything except basic attack moves. The bonus scene sprites are too fast to ever catch, and the mounts are virtually unusable.
