  I still love the crap use of English and the bad taste, plus the usual violence, etc but every time I play with the Deathbringer guy the game crashes at some point. Like 15 times now. Finished it with two other characters I keep giving it another chance but it has become annoying.+++++After 8 more hours it keeps crashing randomly, it is awful, Crian soft don't reply, what the fuck is wrong with you people?

  interesting concept and homage to 80's old school sword and sorcery iconography but way too trashy and clunky..controls are terrible and unresponsive..

  Another culturally insensitive masterpiece from Crian Soft. It's a pretty basic fighting game with entertaining mini-adventures between fights. You might be running from a boulder ala Indiana Jones, dodging swinging blades, or a number of other events that can all lead to a quick, brutal, and hilarious end. Then it's right back into another fight. These little diversions really do help to keep repetition from setting in. Combat is similar but different enough from Age of Barbarian to make this game feel different, but still close enough to keep the two games feeling linked. This is a game that will entertain the right audience wonderfully. People outside of that niche likely won't see the fun though. Like its glorious predecessor Age of Barbarian - if you're a fan of 80's barbarian movies - you'll no doubt get a great many smiles and laughs from Arena.

  If you've played AoB you know what you're getting into! Lot's of gory head chopping action! The stage exploration seems to be gone, and the game takes a more linear arcade style path. Fun mini stages between arena battles help keep things interesting. Also 3 new characters to play as! AoB always reminded me of the "Barbarian" games of the classic 8 bit computer era, and this installation even moreso!

  The game could be great. It does seem to have launched with a few problems. First off, the uncensor option doesn't work, so prepare to see strange ovals with pixels all over the place no matter your settings. Second, there are several glitches and crashes. I was disembowled by a panther and the whole game stopped working and I kept getting run.exe errors. Still, I think it COULD be awesome. Let's see what the patches bring.

  Like the previous installment this game pays homage and tribute to the classic genre of sword and sorcery style movies and games of the late 70's/80's. Criantsoft is what seems to be a small but dedicated outlet for this venue who regarldless of realease mishaps, botches and patches. Aims to deliver exactly waht is described above! If you are a fan of Frazetta and Boris Vallejo art as well as movies such Barbarella. Conan and Hurcules of the 80s and especially a fan of the orgininal Barbarian Series. Then this game is up your alley is and a worthwhile play. In this installment Crian Soft devilvers a delightfully tacky and appealing sword and sorcery game for those who enjoy the concepts of primitive fantasy, scantily clad heroines, beef cake barbaric hunks, and evil sorcerers who aim to stifle the player every step of the way. The game is challenging, the developer is responsive, and the game is a fun challenge for those who enjoy a classic side scrolling beat em up with heros and enemies who wish to stain the floors and walls with the crimson red blood within our bodies!

  Really enjoyed Age of Barbarian. Sadly even though this game looks as if it would have build on the basic gameplay from that, it seems to be one big bug. unresponsive controls, enemies who can hit you while you are dodging are among the issues that make this not only not un, but also plain not playable. I hope the devs manage to fix it.

  I really loved AoB. The theme was spot on for the B-movie fantasy epic, and there is more of that to love here. Sadly Arena is too linear of an experience for me, and while AoB was no storytelling masterpiece each level had its own mini-story and unique environment. Don't get me wrong I enjoy the over-the-top bloodletting, but I do like my barbarians with a little bit more purpose. For now, I will just replay AoB and beat that damn dragon...

  Well, after playing this game for quite a bit... I am sure I can safely review this game quite well, so here are my pros, cons and misc. Pros: -Quite a bit of humour -Surprisingly not too sloppy controls -Not too difficult moveset -B movie effects and gimmicks -Decent music Cons: -Bugs, bugs gallons of the stuff (Still got that sabertooth tiger bug and others) -Occasionally unresponsive controls -Grammar errors and spelling problems -unbalanced Misc: -Blood! Gore! Boobies! Magic! -I will rip your heart out! -Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! -Stop runing my meat sack! -My middlefinger salutes you! -Controller recommended Final note: This is not a game for everyone, this is more for those with very specific tastes on cheesy b-movies and violence... Do I recommend it, in a way, yes. Yes it is enjoyable, though I know of some people who can be annoyed by the minigames and I can perfectly understand them on that point. This is not a game for graphics or voice acting.
