Er ist mit seinem ktraftvollen Schwert und magischen Kräften ausgestattet, um die "goldene Axt" zurückzuholen, die vom Titan Death-Adder gestohlen worden ist. Die vor ihm liegende Reise ist mit Gefahren und Verrat gefüllt, und Tarik muß mit vielen Banditen und merkwürdigen Geschöpfen kämpfen, die auf ihn lauern.
The residents of the once peaceful city of Yuria have lost the legendary Golden Axe - the very thing that had shielded them from evil for so long. It is now in the hands of the unscrupulous titan, Death-Adder. Tarik, the seasoned warrior whose skill with his giant sword is both praised and feared throughout the land, has come forth to try and wrest the Axe frmo the grasp of the black-hearted warlord. Help Tarik to battle the many types of bandits that Death-Adder has amassed to protect himself. Using the sword, and certain very special magical powers, guide Tarik through the gauntlet of bandits to Death-Adder's castle! He'll be waiting there for you, and he's terribly reluctant to give up the Golden Axe! Are you brave enough to bring back the Axe, and thus restore tranquility to Yuria, or will you wind up just another victim of the evil warlord?

//Golden Axe is one of the famous Arcade titles from Sega. The Story is in every Game nearly the same: Death Adder has stolen the magic Golden Axe and you are on a Journey to retrieve it. This is the Conversion of the first Part and it has been a bit downgraded to fit the capabilities of the Master System, which means there is only one Character, the Barbarian Tarik. With only one figure left, its a shame this game has no 2-Player Mode. The Characters move a bit too fast, while the Background is rather slow which makes this Animation look a bit weird. With the 3-Dimensional Levels (you can go up, down, left and right) its sometimes a bit hard to put your Figure in one line with the Enemies, so it happens you want to attack and just hit the Air. But, the Game is still great and make Fun. Not as great as the Arcade Version, but still good to Play. The Graphic is awesome. The Levels are highly Detailed and all the Characters are really big, compared to other Master System Games, but they are not as big as in the Arcade Versions. The Colors sometimes are a bit odd, in the first Level you see blue Stones (Maybe its the Graphic Designer from Enduro Racer?). The Magic Effects are nice done, although I never saw the Stone one (I like to play with Fire). While the Magic Scenes, the Background turns black, so you see only the Characters and the Magic. But that is not too bad, especially if you think the same thing happens on the Genesis. The Animation while walking are a bit jerky and doesn't look to good. Every other thing, from jumping over running to the sword attacks look fine. [...] Its a good Game and its fun to Play even if you already beat the Game. I just miss the 2-Player Mode and the other 2 Character, with that the Game would be a little better, cause you can beat the Game with 3 different Character, instead of taking always the same old Barbarian. This Game is still in the Top-20 of the Master System Games (at least for me). While it has its flaws, it is still one of the better Arcade Versions and graphically it shows what the Master System can handle.// - www.smstributes.co.uk
