This game may look nice, and be `Amiga Specific', but it's a real dog as far 
as gameplay goes.  I had a dealer demo this for me (I almost bought the game
just from seeing the Amiga World screen shots...), and I was completely 
disappointed.  It had jerky animation, lousy control, and very few different
'moves' during combat.  This is just *my* opinion, of course, but I'd pass
on this one...
