About this product

Product Information

The forces of light and dark are engaged in a climactic battle, and your decisions and skill will determine its outcome. Based on the computer title from Electronic Arts, Archon for NES is a board game with a twist: you must actively battle your opponent over contested squares. Each side has 18 fantasy creatures to deploy on a 9x9 checkerboard, from lowly knights and goblins to the powerful wizard and sorceress. Your goal is to either eliminate the opposing faction's units or to maintain control over five "power point" squares. When two creatures meet on the same space, a real-time battle ensues on a separate screen, with players directly controlling their character. Each square's color determines which unit, if any, receives a health advantage in combat.

    Exactly as pictured. Seller was fast, delivery price was low, price of product was exceptional, and everything arrived in perfect condition. (Note: I purchased the official Stranger Things 2 collector’s blu-ray/dvd set. Season 2 was the only one pictured in the ad and was exactly what I expected to receive. However, the title of the auction was STRANGER THINGS Season 1 and 2 Blu-ray DVD Poster Retro VHS Eclusive Collector’s Edition, and season 1 was not included.)

  • Great game, especially 2 players.

    Archon was my absolute favorite game for the Commodore 64 computer, so I was hoping it would be ok for the NES as well. Quite simply, yes, it is great on the NES too! The graphics are simple, but while playing the game you don't even think about it. When your goblin is hitting the opposing players knight with his club it feels like you are dealing with real characters. Anyways, if you are reading this, you are probably aware of what the game is about. To me, Archon is a Must Have game.

  • Archon

    My favorite game on the Commodore 64 as a kid. Wanted to try it on the NES 35 years later & it was just as fun as I remembered it being. Great strategic game for 2 players head to head with that fun duel to the death aspect every round. My kids want to play me constantly. So much fun!
