The Pirates of Dark Water

Based on the animated series of the same name, "The Pirates of Dark Water" is a side-scrolling beat 'em up, similar to "Final Fight" or "Streets of Rage." The player selects a character: Prince Ren and his two companions, Tula and Ioz, who differ in strength and agility but use the same basic attacks. There are two attack buttons: one for quick attacks and combos, and one for a single heavy attack. Additional control options include: blocking attacks, grabbing and throwing enemies, sprint attacks while running, and a special attack that hits multiple enemies at once while consuming health. In most levels, you must also dodge obstacles such as chasms, falling rocks, or spikes shooting up from the ground.
