[edit] Gameplay
The game consists of 8 levels where the player controls a Spartan warrior wielding a sword and fighting various mythical beasts. The Spartan collects "orbs" from his fallen enemies, green orbs for health, blue for magical energy, and red for experience which can be used to upgrade his weapons' damage and special powers. When upgraded to full damage, weapons take on a new "ultimate" form. When certain enemies are weakened, the player may perform a finishing move on them, executed by tapping a series of buttons that appear on-screen. This will kill the enemy and grant the player more orbs than a regular kill.
[edit] Story
The story starts with the player regaining consciousness on a beach after his entire fleet of ships had been wiped out by a violent storm. He progresses inland while fighting various mythical beasts across multiple landscapes. The spartan, Argos, must free the oracle, who will lead him home. Play progresses across various legendary areas, such as Atlantis and Hades.
[edit] Reception
IGN rated Hero of Sparta 9.0, and was highly praised for it's cinematic quality and it's sharp controls.
