A huge battle rages with the warlord Grisgar. Wolves pounce on ally soldiers.
Majinwar, a Java fighting adventure by Gamebrew.com comes out with their own swords and sorcery
version of a popular fighting genre like Capcom's "Final Fight" and Sega's "Streets of Rage".
In our first look, the game took a while to load, but it was well worth the wait. It
features excellent graphics, sounds, music and can even go full-screen by pressing the tab key.
There are two characters you can choose from: Wren the paladin and Azrael the majin.
The game goes for four action-packed episodes, along with a bonus round where you can fight against
Osama Bin Laden and his terrorists, which we thought was pretty cool.

You can play the free online demo and can download the offline version too. The demo contains
the first episode and practice mode. Once we won the first episode, we decided to purchase the full
version and got started on winning the game. The process was simple and we immediately
got the 2Meg full version. After purchasing they also give you online access with a password,
so you can keep you hiscore up.
In the second episode you go to an island of amazon women who start whipping you and your party.
The game gets increasingly harder. In the third episode, you cross a bridge to the castle where
you meet twin ronin samurai brothers, who can slice and dice you in the air. The fourth and last one,
well we won't spoil the ending for you. The extra bonus round can only be reached with a certain
score, we got to meet Osama and his crew, but its really hard considering they have guns and you have a sword.
Hordes of amazon women with their whips and crossbows attack your ship.
Survival mode pits you against tons of the bad guys you meet in the game. If you don't hit anything
for a second your health goes down a point so it becomes a big slug-fest. Food drops from the air,
and you get minimal help from allies. We got far enough to fight two Grisgars.
Overall we found this game to be awesome, especially for a Java game. The online demo is a lot of fun,
but if your trying to save on phone bills then the full version's price tag is not too bad. Check it out!
