A great adventure game to play...

This is a really good adventure game to have in your collection, although to me it doesn’t have much replay ability, but it is still fun to play regardless. The levels and the puzzles are really challenging and the stages are very well designed and put together, it makes for a fantastic adventure. You play the game as a soldier who is trying to save some damsel in distress. The story is not very original, but it goes along nicely with the Greek mythology. I like the concept of his weapon, which is a shield. Traditionally, a shield is usually intended for defense, and that is true in this game for some of his moves, but you have to use the shield for offense as well. He had three shields. One is balanced both on distance and close combat, one is long ranged and the aqua shield is for close combat. I really enjoyed the puzzles that you had to solve, and those kept me busy for quite some time, although the stress level of failing a puzzle and having to do it all over again or running into a seemingly unbeatable boss caused me to grow some gray hair well before I should. The mythology is great to go through as we see some of the gods put their two cents into rygars destiny. The ending was disappointing though, but if you are reading this and have not played it, ill let you determine for yourself if it was disappointing or not. But overall a great adventure game with a lot of fighting and destruction. I recommend this game if you are a fan of adventure and Greek mythology
