9Legendary Axe has you playing as an axe wielding barbarian as you fight your way through six levels. Your axe has a strength meter that determines how strong it is against enemies. Each swing depletes the strength to zero but it quickly refills. You can power up your axe for stronger attacks and faster power recharging. The graphics look great. Learning the attack patterns of enemies is critical for success as the addition of a strength meter that is spent on each swing of your weapon makes the combat a lot more interesting. The strength meter quickly restores, but just make sure to not accidentally play with rapid fire turned on.
