“Play Beowulf, an epic hero tormented by desire for power and glory. A slayer and a king – torn between the nobility and brutality within him.

You are Beowulf, legendary Norse warrior with the strength of 30 men. Arrogant, self-serving, and lustful for gold and glory, you journey to Denmark to destroy a bloodthirsty beast wreaking havoc on a frigid land. But evil persists, and you succumb to its lure of even greater fame, quietly maneuvering to claim the Danish throne. As King, you must face the consequences of ambition, even as war descends on the realm. Lead your thanes into battle, slay the Titans of a dying age, and crush the enemies that threaten to annihilate both your kingdom and your people.

Only then, when you look Destiny in the eye, will you know what kind of hero you truly are…

Beowulf, let’s just start by saying that it’s a alright action game, and if you search for something with lots of blood, carnage, killing and brutality Beowulf is a game for you.It’s a action game that follows Beowulf’s life for a 30 year period not seen in the movie.Now the main focus in the game is the way you fight you can fight in the carnal way, gaining huge levels of power but at the cost of your men, or the right way by not going carnal and fighting side by side with your thanes, and thus making both them and you stronger.Now the weapons varry from your bare fist to swords, lances, bones, staves, maces, shields(yes you can fight using shields too), and another cool way of disposing of your enemies is the grapple where you catch the enemy in your grasp and you can throw him, crush him, smash him or steal his weapon(if he has one).It is said that Beowulf has the strength of 30 men, and using that strength you can also use as weapons pillars, stones, baskets and any other thing that can be trowen or used as a weapon against the enemy.Now your enemies vary from simple undead to huge trolls and dragons and sea monsters, as for each of them you need to use a different strategy.

Now the gameplay, after an hour or two can become pretty repetitive and boring, becouse at one moment you will get sick of doing the same old combo, or grapple.The game graphics is pretty good with the post processing enabled and a reasonable resolution of at least 1024 x 768.The sound and the musics are ok, suitable for the game.

Beowulf is not a genere defining game, but neither a end of the bottom, so if you look for some action and an interesting game, you shouldn’t miss Beowulf .
