I had this game on the Amiga when I was very young and I have so many amazing memories of playing this. The visuals were awesome, and the mini games were fun and non-repetitive. Such a great game!

The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.
