PASSING GRADE!

I tell ya', I love early Capcom games on the Nintendo. You get some of the great arcade ports to play at home. Way back in the day (I'm talking late eighties humanoids), there was nothing greater than telling your friends you got a new game that was once in the arcade.

Trojan is an excellent hack and slash arcade game. You play as a Trojan warrior out to slay the King of your enemies. Did I mention this also takes place after a great cataclysm, the threat of nuclear war come to pass!

Added to the game are power-ups hidden throughout the levels. As well as a 2 player vs. fighting mode! Cool!
Setting this game apart from other hack and slashers is the fact that you get a shield! And you can use it overhead and in diagonals too! Added to the fact that certain enemy attacks disarms you really heats things up!

All in all, an excellent early Capcom game that you shouldn't pass up. 

In the meantime, in between time!
