On This Day in Nintendo History: The Battle of Olympus

On this day (March 28) in Nintendo history...

  • The Battle of Olympus was released in 1988 for the Nintendo Entertainment System in Japan. In this action-adventure game, developed by Infinity, ancient Greece is being terrorised by Hades, the dark ruler of the underworld. Helene, the girlfriend of Orpheus, is kidnapped by Hades who is holding her captive. A top-down map of Greece shows various dungeons and ancient Greek city-states for the player to visit on their journey. Swords, shields, and crystals help to provide offensive power and defensive strength for the player.

What are you favourite memories of these games? How do you think they hold up today? Hash it out in the comments.
