Every so often a poor little warrior or lonely archer will appear, trapped in cages by the goblins, crying out to be rescued. Run into them, and the little guys join the party, acting as wingmen, helping to beat back the hordes of monsters.
It's just like running into a power up during a space shoot 'em up game only instead of getting extra lasers, you get an archer running next to you, shooting arrows up the screen. It works rather well, and I soon found myself cheering on my brave band of adventurers as they laid waste to endless hordes of goblins and other assorted fantasy creatures from the genre.
But all good things must come to an end and very soon I've been hit too hard from a monster one time too many and it's game over. But the adventure must go on, and all those lovely gold coins I've collected can be used to buy power ups for my little wizard, or archer, or fighter. Each power up allows the little guy to fire faster, further, harder.
