DESCRIPTION

With a mix of ancient enemies and modern weaponry, players will rock to the beat of Twisted Sister's 1984 anthem "I Wanna Rock" while taking on hordes of Zeus' minions from Mt. Olympus. As Willford Rockwell, a modern man unfortunate enough to be possessed by the Titan Prometheus, whose agenda is to restore the Greek gods to prominence, you have a mighty but eclectic arsenal ranging from a pistol, sniper crossbow, and machine gun, to oddities like the Medusa Gun and Acid Rifle.

Three difficulty settings are available in single-player mode, while multiplayer offers three distinct modes of gameplay — Cooperative, Treasure Hunt, and Fragmatch. Up to eight players can join forces in Cooperative mode and choose specific levels or tackle the entire game from start to finish. In Treasure Hunt, teams of players search for hidden objects (the number can be user-determined) in each level, then hunt down and kill all the opposing team members to steal their treasures as well. Fragmatch is simple deathmatch action, where players score one point for each kill and lose a point if they die.

Employing various strategies and weapons is a must when dealing with the formidable array of monsters, beasts, and legends in Will Rock. A partial list of opponents includes the regenerating Minotaur, charging Centaur, many types of skeletons, harpies, Perseus, sphinx, lions, tigers, satyrs, Atlas, the two-headed Cerebrus, rats, Cupid, and a host of boss creatures like Hephaestus, Cyclops, Medusa, and Zeus himself. ~ Michael L.
