Game-a-day #56...Age of Adventure - The Return of Heracles



Ok, "The Return of Heracles" is an RPG/adventure that is based on Greek mythology.  It's not the best RPG in the world, but there is something retro cool about how simple and 8 bit it's RPG experience is.  The Greek font that the game uses is very creative and gives "The Return of Heracles" the ancient Greek feel it's going for.  You can play one or more mythological Greek heroes, and the goal is to complete 12 tasks (like the 12 Labours of Hercules).  I'm not over fond of the game play, it's clunky and slow.  The graphics are meh, but I see the creativity in it, and I like that it's not knights and dragons.  Perhaps a little more time spent playing this game would glean a love for it... only time will tell.
