I also preferred the original to Archon Ultra. That original title was one of three great EA games I acquired at one time, the others being Murder on the Zinderneuf and MULE. The company was still small, dealing fairly with new developers, and making a name for itself. What a shame Topsy grew into a monster!

I much prefer the original game to Archon Ultra. I liked the added attack mode, but I felt the battles were too sluggish in Ultra. The remake is very accurate, and matches the game speed exactly (I'm so geeky that I ran them side by side).
I just downloaded the remake but the one player option is not available, actually the only feature available is 2 players.
Or Am i doing something wrong?
Anyway the graphics are very nice as well as the gameplay. i will have to find a second player!:notrust:

Question What are the keyboard controls for Archon?

Sorry to disturb everyone, but I would like to know what keys (or buttons on the joystick) I use to move or cause actions in my characters (i.e. make the Sorcerer or Sorceress generate an Elemental)?

Sorry for my naivete, but I've never played this before except at a friend's house.

Thanks.

did you... you know... actually read what the game is telling you when you start it?
