Gameplay
--------
Warriors: Legends of Troy is Hack and Slash Action-Combat game
that incorporates strategic combat techniques and character
leveling. An installment in game developer Tecmo Koei's Dynasty
Warriors series, action in Warriors: Legends of Troy is based in
an existing cultural framework, in this case that of the
legendary 10-year Bronze Age war between the Greeks and the
Trojans. Events, playable characters and story background are
pulled from the Greek epic poems, the Illiad and the Odyssey, as
well as the later Roman retooling of the Troy story, The Aeneid.
Players can choose to fight for either side in the war, playing
as a variety of famous heroic characters, for example: Achilles,
Oddesseus and Telamonian Ajax (Aias) for the invading Greeks, or
Hektor, Paris and the ian Penthesilea for the Trojans. Other
characters may also be playable. Each character has his/her own
temperament, warrior skills and finishing moves. Finishing moves
are unleashed by filling an in-game meter, resulting in a
short-lived extra burst of power, allowing for the move. Like
other games rooted in the Dynasty Warriors franchise players will
face masses of enemies on a regular basis using period specific
weapons, in this case s, shields, javelins, etc. Weapons,
for example shields, also can and must at times be used
strategically to set up enemies for optimal use of special moves.
Players will have access to a variety of attacks and can string
together combos for maximum damage. They will also face
intervention from the gods of Olympus at times and battle bosses
pulled from the pages of Greek mythology. Finally the game
contains a leveling system that utilizes an in-game economy and a
limited number of grid slots, allowing the player to carry items
either purchased or found that increase their abilities.
