Game Guide

This is an action-adventure RPG where players embody a Spartan warrior, raised in ancient Sparta, who must defend his homeland from the invading Roman Empire. Guided by Greek Gods, players embark on an epic quest to uncover their past and fulfill their destiny.
Story
The Spartan's Journey
Abandoned in the ancient City of Sparta as a child, the unnamed Spartan was raised in the training camps of the warrior people. He was befriended by the twins, Castor and Pollux, and led by the great King Leonidas.
The Spartan quickly proves himself worthy of his allies as a true warrior and a fearless hero, a hero that his homeland desperately needs. Only the City of Sparta remains defiant against the Roman Empire's merciless invasion of the free world.
The Spartan's desire to save his home will take him on a journey to find the answers to his birth, his past, and his destiny. Visited by Greek Gods, he discovers the true power within him.
He is commanded to fight the invading Roman forces and, guided by the Gods, he embarks on an epic quest that takes him across many lands, right to the heart of the Roman Empire. This is the journey of the Spartan - born a warrior, destined to become a Legend.

Select the arena location and which enemies are to be faced there, then choose which unlocked power-ups you want enabled in the arena.
During the Story Mode or level replays, you can find arena power-ups, which you can then enable in the arenas. Look out for all sorts of cool things including bombs, weapons, squads of allies, and even a friendly giant.

Saving & Loading
Whilst playing the story mode, you pass checkpoints, which become your restart points if you die or otherwise fail a mission. If you exit the game, you will be offered the chance to save from the last checkpoint.
You may restart the game at that checkpoint later by selecting Load Game from the main menu.
Battle Tactics
It is essential to master all of the controls in Spartan: Total Warrior™. One of the most important aspects of the combat is the shield - this cannot be overstated.
As well as protecting the Spartan from attack, the shield can be used offensively to knock back attackers. This can be done either by using the raise shield and single attack buttons (L2) to hit a single enemy, or the raise shield and radial attack buttons (L2) to clear a space in the crowd. This allows the Spartan to take control of the battle and steer it his way.
The Spartan also has a range of weapons and attacks that must be deployed strategically throughout the game. Keep an eye on the enemies' tactics and help allies in trouble, because keeping them alive may just win you the battle. The outcome of the war, however
Items & Weapons
BASIC WEAPON
Well-balanced offensive and defensive capabilities, allowing medium-paced attacks.
BOW
Accurate for firing one or many arrows at a time. This ranged weapon can be modified with a fire pickup for a limited time.
TWIN SWORDS
Fast and agile twin blades, which can also be used for limited defence.
SPEAR
A long reach, offset by a slow speed.
HAMMER
Slow but very powerful.
BOMBS
Look for bombs placed around the level. They will not always be in obvious places, and may even be hidden inside other objects. If you are having trouble finding a way forward, a path may be revealed once these explosives have been used.
BARRELS AND AMPHORAE
Almost everybody (allies and enemies) can be burnt and are vulnerable to death by fire. Barrels and amphorae (vases) found around the levels sometimes contain naphtha, which is highly flammable and can be ignited once its vessel has been smashed.
EXPLOSIVE KEGS
Another useful way to clear paths and take out multiple enemies, these kegs can only be detonated with fire arrows.
CHESTS
Look out for chests while exploring the locations. These contain helpful items such as arrows, fire arrows and arena pickups.
CRATES
Many types of items may be hidden in crates including health and power orbs, diary pages and bombs. Break them open to see what they contain.
THE SPARTAN
The ultimate lone warrior. The Spartan is a man of courage and honour - his purpose in life revealed only in the heat of battle. Orphaned at birth and raised as a true Spartan warrior, he quickly became one of the cities most promising fighters. With the twin brothers, Castor and Pollux at his side, the Spartan will lead his allies into the battle that will decide the fate of their city.
VIAL OF RAGE
Plunge the Spartan into a temporary enraged state to inflict increased amounts of damage.
INVISIBILITY POTION
Temporary invisibility the Spartan can use to sneak into the heart of the unsuspecting enemy camps.

ARENA PICK-UP
Unlocks 'extras' in the Arena Mode.
ARCHIMEDES DIARY PAGES
