God of War
About the Game
God of War is set in the age of ancient Greek myths. The hero of the game is a mortal warrior Kratos. Long time ago, Kratos was the leader of Spartans, a fearless and brutal general who waged wars for the glory of his city. Today, he is known as the Ghost of Sparta.
Gameplay & Core Systems
God of War is a 3D action game with platforming and puzzle-solving elements. They allow players to perform combos, which will constantly climb until the fight is over or until it takes too long to register another hit. It is possible to upgrade the default weapons, learning new moves and striking faster, or put the orbs into different weapons acquired throughout the game, such as Blade of Artemis. Kratos will, over time, also have access to a selection of magic spells. A major part of the experience is several unlockable extras, which are only acquired when players has beaten the game on different difficulty modes.
Standout Features
