Artura is a hack-and-slash side-scroller that looks like someone tried to draw Gauntlet from memory after a power outage. You’re some kind of Celtic warrior on a mystical mission, but really you’re just trying not to die while jumping over spikes and stabbing things that look vaguely hostile. The music is decent, the graphics are a fever dream, and the level design is the very definition of “you had to be there.” Still, it has personality, and enough weird charm to keep retro fans entertained. Just don’t ask what the plot is. No one knows.
