About Battle Axe
Battle Axe is a top-down hack-and-slash adventure set in the kingdom of Mercia. You fight through monsters and powerful bosses to reach the stronghold of Etheldred, a dark sorceress whose armies abduct the innocent every seven years. You can play alone or team up in local co-op.
The heroes of Mercia
Choose one of three champions, each with their own weapons and abilities:
- Fae: a swift elven warrior who fights with twin blades and throwing daggers.
- Iolo: a bearded druid who lashes enemies and casts fireballs.
- Rooney: a marauder who crushes foes at close range or fires cannonballs from afar.
Combat and upgrades
Attack in eight directions with melee strikes and ranged projectiles. You collect gold, find powerful scrolls and potions, and visit the mysterious merchant Ælfwyn to upgrade your gear between battles.
Regions and presentation
The game features four unique regions, rendered in handcrafted pixel art, and a soundtrack by Manami Matsumae. Its combat and arcade feel draw inspiration from the golden age of arcade games.
