Description
Warrior is the first one-on-one fighting game.
Two knights wielding swords face each other on the battlefield. The players can move their knight and, at the press of a button, move their sword while standing still to strike or defend against an attack. The battlefield has death pits, so players can either kill the opponent or try to push them into a hole.
The game uses a vector display for the knights and the score, and a semi-transparent plastic overlay to display the environment, like many games of this era.
