Golden Axe II (ゴールデンアックスII) is a 1991 beat-em-up and the direct sequel to the critically acclaimed Golden Axe. Unlike that game, Golden Axe II is a Sega Mega Drive exclusive, though it has since been re-released as part of numerous Mega Drive compilations. The game features Ax-Battler, Tyris-Flare, and Gilius Thunderhead once again, as they face a new foe, Dark Guld.

It is extremely similar to the previous game, with various changes. For this reason, Golden Axe II has received mixed reviews from critics; many claim the game is merely a re-hash of the previous entry in the series, and that very little is added to the core gameplay. Though some have praised the graphics and music, others have criticised the game's sound effects which are said to detract from the atmosphere of the game.

Story

Three years after the defeat of Death Adder, the land is once again in peril as the evil emperor Dark Guld has escaped his confinement. He has stolen the Golden Axe and raised an army of demonic followers.

Gameplay

The game is a belt-scrolling beat-'em-up, like its predecessor, and can be played by one player or by two players simultaneously. Once again, the heroes must recover the Golden Axe by fighting through multiple stages, each of which ends in a fight against a group of bosses.

Characters move in any direction using the D-Pad. They can run with Left Left or Right Right. They jump with C and can jump higher when running. Characters attack enemies in front of them with B and can attack while jumping. Attacking while running performs a charge attack. They can grab enemies in close range with B and then throw them by pressing Left or Right. Enemies can be thrown onto other enemies or thrown off of cliffs. They can attack enemies all around them with B+C (replacing the "back attack" of the original game).

Magic books can be gathered along the way by attacking wizards. This increases the magic meter of the characters, giving them the ability to perform magic spells that attack every enemy on the screen at once. The power of the magic increases at certain marked thresholds, depending on how many books are possessed. The lowest-level magic spell can be cast by pressing A. Higher-level spells can be selected by holding A, which incrementally fills the magic meter, then cast by releasing A when the meter has highlighted the desired level. This behavior can be changed in the options to mirror the original game, where the highest-level magic ability is always performed when A is pressed.

Each character has a health meter and loses health points as the character takes damage from foes. When the meter is empty, the character loses a life but revives in place at the cost of an extra life. If there are no extra lives remaining, the game can only be continued if the player has credits remaining. The length of the health meter (between 3 and 5) can be set in the options, and there are three difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, and Hard). The highest difficulty setting adds new enemies to increase the challenge. At the end of the game, a rank is awarded based on the number of enemies defeated and lives lost.

Various balance changes have been made from the first game. Enemies could be trapped in endless charge attacks loops in the prequel, but this is no longer possible as two consecutive charge attacks trigger a short invincibility window. The previously exploitable jumping attacks have also been toned down in strength, as certain enemy types such as lizardmen and claw-wielding enemies can effectively defend against these attacks.

Characters

 Ax-Battler
A fierce barbarian warrior. He fights with a two-handed sword, which gives him the strongest attack and medium range. He is a competent magic user and has four levels of wind magic.

 Gilius Thunderhead
A fearless dwarf warrior. He fights with an axe, which gives him a medium attack but the largest range. He is the worst magic user and has three levels of earth magic.

Bizarrians

Rideable monsters called Bizarrians appear in the stages, ridden by enemies. After dismounting the enemy riding them, a character can hop onto the creature to ride it by moving onto it. Each Bizarrian has its own unique attack. They cannot attack while jumping but can perform a charge attack while running. Characters are knocked off of them when attacked.

The Duel

The Duel

There are two separate Duel modes, depending on whether one or two players are playing.

In the single-player mode, the player chooses any character and fights a series of 15 battles in a single-screen arena against progressively harder enemies. Enemies sometimes appear alone or sometimes in groups. At the end, the player's performance is graded and given a rank.

In the two-player mode, each player chooses a character (and cannot choose the same character), then they fight a single match against one another, using the same controls and moves as the regular game.

History

Development

The game's sprites were drawn using a touchpad drawing tablet. The tablet used positional sensor technology developed by Sega. The same technology was used as a controller interface for the earlier 1987 arcade game World Derby and the later Sega Pico console.[28]

Legacy

Golden Axe II was followed by Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder in arcades in 1992 and by Golden Axe III on the Sega Mega Drive in 1993.

Comic adaptation

Sonic the Comic included few "The Legend of Golden Axe" comic strips the plot of which take place after Golden Axe II, the first story arc dealing with the resurrection of Dark Guld. The story arcs are "Citadel of Dead Souls" (issue #1 to issue #6) and "Plague of Serpents" (#13 to #18).

Versions

Emulated versions of the game were released for the Wii Virtual Console, Steam, and iOS. The iOS version was removed from sale on iTunes in 2015.[29]
