Basically you are playing a warrior or princess in a stone-age-like setting - you're beating up the monsters to finally defeat that big bad emperor. I didn't care too much about the story I have to admit. It might take some minutes till you get used to the controls, but once you know them they are pretty good and fighting is easy and fun. This game is especially good after a hard day of work - good way to kill agressions.
The game is a sequel to Barbarian obviously , but not the game of this name that was made for the PC, the PC version of this game's predecessor was Death Sword. There has been some confusion about this subject. One of the true classics when I had my Commodore 64 and Amiga. The game offers a bit than the first game in the series as you can run around inside and outside caves killing hoardes of different monsters. The graphics are simple but still offer enough details to show blood and reactings like when you kick your enemy.
There are verious combat movemets including the "flip-sword-between-fingers" which is rather cool. The game is even more funny when you fight against a human player and you can get some quite hard fights with lots of violence including chopping of the head. Have fun with this classic. A marked improvement over the original, Barbarian 2 features vibrant EGA graphics although the drawn characters still move like broken marionettes , and the ability to play as either the Barbarian or the Princess no doubt the same one he rescued in Barbarian 1.
The devious maze, however, truly distracts from the game, and there's not enough fighting or variety to distinguish the game from zillions of other slug-fests that have come before.

In the same year there was another Barbarian game, which has nothing to do with the other two games. I remember this game always being called Barbarian.
But there was always one guy, you could do the move from the straight to take off his had and he would fall for it. Paperinik77pk 1 point. I remember the first time I chopped an head on the C64!!!

We may have multiple downloads for few games when different versions are available. Not a whole lot more to it than that. However, what is really great about this game is the two player option where you and a friend compete to against eachother. Some of my fondest memories involve decapitating the kid who lived down the street.. Great fun. A barbarian fightgame. Kill your opponent by attacking him with different moves. The scenery is quite alright for this CGA graphics it displays..
This is actually a game I played the original of on the Amiga when Palace Software were churning out similar titles and, not meaning to offend any PC fans, the Amiga version is a lot better than the one here. That said though, its still a fan little game to anyone who is a fan of the wooly-pants slash-em up genre and has a few elements in it that have never really been repeated in games since. You can decapitate your opponent with a single blow.
That's right kiddies, pressing back and fire on that joy stick launches your wooly-panted, mulleted barbarian into a death blow spinning chop with Conan-esque style. If the attack lands clean, the head of you opponent will bounce away for a little goblin to kick around while dragging away the body.
Just for this alone the game is worth a try although I wouldn't go expecting A-grade beat 'em up action, although it is fun to sit down with a friend and try to see who can decapitate first. A five minute amusement. Though if you're looking for a similar game with better AI and strategy blood too I'd recommend Moonstone for both single and multiplayer.
