Rygar: The Battle of Argus for Wii Reviews by Gamers

The main game isn't bad, but I rented this for the gladiator mode. In gladiator mode you can move around, jump, and block, you have only 3 one-shot attacks which are executed by moving the Wiimote in a corresponding fashion. All you do in this mode is fight wave after wave of enemies while restricted to a square arena. Just a good, simple game of arcade survival.

I was pleased with this mode. For one thing you do progress through different backdrops, so that at least adds some audiovisual variety. Second, you do sometimes take a break from the square arena to fight bosses from the main game, which was a real treat, I was not expecting that. Third, the motion controls work well and are fun, though of course it would have been better if there were combos as there are in the main game.
