About the game Golden Axe:

Golden Axe is a side-scrolling arcade beat 'em up released by Sega in 1989. The game has a medieval/fantasy setting and three characters to choose from (Gilius Thunderhead the dwarf, Ax Battler the barbarian, Tyris Flare the amazon). The game set itself apart from other beat-'em-ups by its inclusion of magic powers unique to each character as well as rideable beasts known as Bizarrians, each with special moves of their own. Together, these features made each character play differently, rather than just having visual differences to separate them, and the Bizarrians' differences added another level of depth to the gameplay. Golden Axe was epic in every sense of the word: bosses dwarfed the player characters, magic powers filled the screen, and enemies let out shrieks of pain as they died, their corpses permanently littering the playing field rather than vanishing like in most games in the genre. It was a 1 demonstration of the System 16's power, and Golden Axe quickly became one of Sega's biggest sellers.
