Alexander the Great (356 to 323 BC), King of Macedonia, was born in the Macedonian city of Pella. He was destined to become the greatest military genius in western history and to conquer the majority of the known world at that time. His wish was to take over all countries and create a giant united kingdom. Arguably the greatest military leader of all time players now have the opportunity to adopt the role of this legendary icon, travel back in time and recreate some of history’s greatest battles.

The player takes on the role of Alexander and some of his closest friends in this action role-play game with fantastic 3D visuals. He accompanies the commander and his special units in his famous battles. He thereby not only solves tricky and delicate battle-related tasks, but also must prove his mettle in action-packed fights. At the beginning of each mission, the party is made up and equipped with weapons, equipment and healing potions. Bonus points are available for successful battles which can be used to reinforce the heroes attributes and special moves (e.g. shield hit, all-round blows, multiple punches, jump attack). The player collects weapons and objects from the battlefield and can use them for his fighters or sell them. Victory in the various missions and difficult battles is achieved by employing tactical skill. Opponents, in addition to normal soldiers, also include boss opponents, e.g. on a chariot or battle elephant! The arena is another mode. Here you can go straight into battle without any delay and continually face new opposing hordes. The camera can be freely rotated and swiveled.
