About this game

Ivanhoe is a scrolling action beat ’em up in which the player takes control of a sword-wielding hero on a mission to rescue the princess. Progress involves battling through numerous challenging levels and using several different sword-slashing attacks against opponents.

The game presents its combatants as large characters, with animation emphasizing their clumsy, lumbering movement. Ivanhoe was released for Amiga and Atari ST computers and is associated with Ocean Software and Ocean France.
