Breakpoint did it again - one of my favorite arcade classics hit mobile phone screen. The game in question is Capcom's Warriors of fate and is the best beat 'em up game out there. Granted the game has lost some of the shine it had back in the old arcade days (you've got only 3 characters to chose from and a couple of levels less) but this is the best arcade to mobile ports I've ever seen. All the special moves are there and the pleasure of beating the crap out of the swarming enemy soldiers is comparable to the original.
The graphics and sound are quite decent although they don't exactly shine. They are true to the original however and the gameplay although not too long timewise can bolster some replay value since it's so fun to beat down the enemy army one man at a time (or a dozen if you wish), that you'll probably end up going through the game more than once. To help you in this task you have horses and weapons among other things but you'll probably end up NOT using those in the end - the mobile game similar to its arcade predecessor is all about hand-to-hand pounding combat...
Graphic and sound 7/10
Gameplay 10/10
Value for money 10/10
Novelty Remake
Total 9/10
The bottom line - a great arcade port. The only reason NOT to like it is if you hated the original WOF game back in the early 90s.
