Highlander

Highlander is an action and fighting game built around sword combat, timing, positioning, and defensive and offensive skills.

The quest moves through three major encounters. Players first learn the arts of attack and defense while facing Ramirez, then travel to the present day to battle the more skillful Fasil in modern New York. The final confrontation with Kurgen takes place on a deserted rooftop high above the city streets.
