Description
About This Game
The year is 19XX A.D. and the human race has been brought to its knees
by the resurrected ancient Beast Lord. The people then brought back to
life Rygar, a legendary warrior, in order to fight to save the Human
race. Armed with a weapon which extends out (Diskarmor), you'll also
make full use of your jumping abilities to venture through and clear all
27 stages. Making its appearance in arcades in 1986 as a side-scrolling
action game, the game received high acclaim for its beautifully rendered
graphics, such as a setting sun and waterfalls. There are also many
bonus features such as collecting the 5 Powers of Indra to obtain
special bonuses or gaining 1,000,000 bonus points for finding hidden
items (Indra’s Book of Secrets). Aside from those, the number of lives
and the difficulty settings can be altered.
