Trojan (Arcade) - 1 Credit Challenge
3In this video, I'm doing a 1 Credit Challenge of a game that I played before, mainly in Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 1 for the PS2. That game is: Trojan for the Arcade. This game was developed and published by Capcom, it was released in 1986. The North American version of the arcade was published by Romstar. Trojan was ported to the MS-DOS and NES, released in the same year as the arcade version. This game can also be found in Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 1 for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox, released in 2005. Trojan is also known as: Tatakai no Banka in Japan. The plot of Trojan goes like this: Set in a post-apocalyptic future during the aftermath of a nuclear war, the player takes control of a warrior who is hired to defeat the gang of an evil dictator. The hero is armed with a sword and shield, but has also been trained in the martial arts. The arcade version can be played by up to two players alternating. The game's controls consist of an eight-way joystick and two action buttons. Similarly to Kung-Fu Master and Rush'n Attack, the player jumps by holding the joystick upwards instead of having a dedicated jump button like other side-scrolling action games. Instead, one button is used to swing the sword at enemies and the other to hold the shield to block enemy attacks, including projectiles such as throwing-knives and arrows. The shield can be held towards the player while standing or crouching, as well as upwards vertically and diagonally. Some enemies will throw magic balls which cause the player to lose their sword and shield if they block. During these instances, the player will fight barehanded, with the sword and shield buttons used to punch and kick respectively. The sword and shield will appear on-screen after some time, allowing the player to recover them. Power-ups include floating hearts that restore the player's health and jumping spots where the player can jump higher than usual. The game consists of six stages, where the player will face the usual series of weak enemies, as well as a sub-boss at the middle of each stage and a boss at the end. The player is allowed to start the game at any of the six stages. However, the player must play through the entire game again after defeating the final boss, Achilles, in order to see the true ending (similarly to Ghosts'n Goblins). The player can continue after a game over depending on the dip switch settings. The NES version of Trojan features several significant changes to the game, such as the addition of new power-ups and hidden rooms, as well as an alternative versus mode, where two players compete against each other in a first-to-three-rounds match, making it Capcom's first attempt at the fighting game genre. Player 1 controls the main character, while Player 2 controls the enemy character, whose abilities are identical to the main character. Oveall, Trojan is a great side-scrolling action hack and slash game by Capcom. If you haven't played Trojan before, then give this game a try. I hope you enjoy this 1 Credit Challenge video of Trojan for the Arcade and thanks for watching!
