With all the hype and glitz that has accompanied certain MODERN games in the past week, and with WARFARE in the news, we offer our own take on a classic game that has a DRAGON, and other mythical creatures. It hails from an AGE of early gaming, 1983, to be exact and features SUPER gameplay, not your typical MARIOnette characters that your BROTHERS used to play.

Our game is ARCHON and is a refreshing blast from the past, which features the perfect mix of Action and Strategy. In fact, it actually started the whole Strategy/Action genre of current games. If you haven't played it, you're missing a great game, like the following sites have commented:

Hopefully, someone somewhere will re-release [Archon] in it's brilliant original form for Windows XP sometime so that more gamers can experience this great treat.”
GameFAQ – 10 out of 10

Archon is a great example of a terrific game that should be remade...and it's what we're still waiting for today.”
GameSpot – 9.7 out of 10

Archon, one of the most original and successful games...blended strategy, action, chess, fantasy monsters, and magic spells in a surprising and delightful way.”

Normally I'd trash this as Spam, but since I played a lot of Archon when I was younger, I'd be more than happy to let it stay! Just wish there was an Android version in the works.
