Descpription:
The game uses an Arabian theme, with similarities to
such things as Sinbad, and often falls into stereotype, especially
with enemies. It uses a very simple and very common story of a princess,
Princess Lurana, being kidnapped by an evil figure, a sheik named Sazabiss,
for some evil purpose, in this case, to sacrifice to his god.
The gameplay is very similar to many beat 'em ups of the generation,
and to Sega's other side-scrolling beat 'em ups Golden Axe and Streets
of Rage, using three action buttons, one to punch, one to kick and one
for a special attack, in this case, magic based, similar to Golden
Axe special attacks, characters can also throw their opponents.
The game has received criticism for being 'stiff' in its character movements,
items can be collected from chests, as well as some enemies, to give
extra points, restore health and grant the character their special attack.
Four players may play at once with one of four selectable characters,
Sinbat, Rayama, Goldor or Datta. Sinbat is the game's young,
handsome hero, Rayama the game's young, attractive female, Goldor
the game's muscle character, who appears to be older than Sinbat
and Rayama, and Datta is a spiritual looking bald man.
