Destrega
Around 1,000 years ago a race of people known as the Strega 
appeared in the small country of Zamu’el. They taught the population and 
endowed them with powers similar to their own but the local folk wanted more. 
In the war that followed many powerful artefacts were lost and the memories of
 wealth and powers faded into dreams. Recently, some of the artefacts have been
 rediscovered, their powers reawakened and the lust for power rekindled. 
Fearing that the surviving Strega would once again try to take that power away 
the Emperor sends out his fighters to hunt them down and destroy them once and 
for all. 

DESTREGA is a true 3D fighting game that contains all the great combos and 
moves of many of its predecessors but allows much more freedom of movement 
within the battle zones themselves. Combatants can hide behind objects, leap 
onto platforms and shower each other with short or long range attacks from 
every imaginable angle. Each controller button guides a particular move, 
jumping, punching, kicking etc but when players are not within physical range
 of each other these moves are converted into magical attacks. 

This makes it very simple to get instantly into the action as even random 
button bashing will produce spectacular results. Pros, on the other hand, will 
be able to tailor those moves into specific actions that have devastating 
effects on the opposition. Energy bolts in a range of colours and shapes twist
 and weave around the screen to be counterattacked or blocked with an equally 
destructive force. Camera viewpoints automatically adjust to encompass the 
entire battle area giving players an in-your-face view of the close combat or a 
wide perspective shot of the long-range conflict across each of the excellent 
arenas. 

There are 12 main characters in the game, each with their own range of moves, 
combos and magic and successfully completing the game allows access to secret 
characters from Dynasty Warriors.  

DESTREGA is very different to other fighting games while at the same time
 familiar enough to minimise the learning curve. It’s fast, fluid and frantic 
as well as loads of fun to play.
