Arch Rivals

Description

Arch Rivals is a fighting game developed for the NES console in 1990. The game offers players not only classic one-on-one battles, but also a variety of different game modes and fun rules.
At first glance, it's obvious that the developers have put a lot of thought into the graphics and gameplay. Arch Rivals is created with precise details and colorful animations that give the game a stamp of professionalism. The characters are perfectly crafted, be it the main character or the various enemies that swarm the player throughout the game. The battles are thrilling and adrenaline-fuelled, which adds to the game's addictiveness and fun. The game offers a total of three different game modes, all of which are action-packed and full of varied challenges. The first one is the tournament mode, where the player has to take on individual opponents one by one and eventually get to the big boss, who is of a higher level than the other opponents. In the tournament, it's important to not only be able to fight well, but also to strategically use special moves and attacks that get stronger with each level. Another game mode is the so-called "loot competition". Here, the player must fight his way through hordes of enemies and collect as many points and loot as possible. In this way, players try to open the gate to the next level and gradually complete the whole game. This mode is more action-packed and faster-paced than tournament mode, but it is still very balanced fun. The last mode offered by Arch Rivals is the so-called "dawn match". In this mode, the player competes against other players and can choose either a single match, where they face one opponent, or a tag team match, where they can play against two opponents at once. This adds another dimension to the game where the player must use his team and also combine attacks correctly to win.
Overall, Arch Rivals is a very well crafted and entertaining game that deserves the attention of all fighting game fans. Its precise graphics, variety of game modes and adrenaline-packed action make it a classic. If you like one-on-one battles and want to enjoy an action-packed experience, you will definitely not forgive yourself for playing this game. Arch Rivals is a great example of how to properly combine simplicity with complexity to create the ultimate fun game for the NES console.
