Description Altered Beast
You are a hero resurrected by the god Zeus to rescue his daughter Athena. With a scenery inspired by ancient Greece, you have to fight against hordes of undead and demons, with a boss at the end of each level until you meet the god Neff, who holds the girl captive.
The title Altered Beast refers to your shape-shifting abilities. In this platformer, you can collect spirit balls by defeating two-headed wolves, allowing you to mutate into different beasts, such as a werewolf, a dragon, a tiger, a bear and others, depending on the version. Each form, tied to a level, comes with special abilities such as flight and powerful attacks, which easily surpass the basic set of punches and kicks of your human form.
The game can be played in single-player or multiplayer co-op mode on the same screen.
