Game Review (written by Eric) Added on: 01/09/2008
Darius Gaiden is an arcade game that was released for the PC in 1999 by Interplay. Before it was released for the PC, it was such a big hit in arcade games in 1994 and was also released for the Sega Saturn in 1996. There’s a reason this game was such a big success throughout the 90s and it is because this game is a very good game.
The goal of this simple game is to defend your planet from invaders. To achieve this goal you must take control f an attack ship and beat out the enemies that come your way.

what kind of missiles you have. There are a number of power ups that you can get along the way which will help you upgrade the weaponry of your ship and which also makes your ship ready for facing the more difficult levels. The power-ups will appear after you shoot at enemy ships. You can also pick up shields along the way. As you get power ups, you can improve the status of your missiles, shields or the main laser.
The game only has 28 levels but it doesn’t mean you’ll have an easy time finishing the game. The game has enough challenges to keep you occupied for long hours before you can successfully defeat it. You can also play the two player cooperative mode and work together to defend your planet. Still even with two players, it doesn’t mean this game is a walk in the park. It is a pretty challenging and exciting game.
This game is one of those entertaining games that provided enough fun without getting into any fancy graphics or game play and without featuring any graphic violence or anything like that. It was simply a good game. The game actually features mediocre graphics which makes the game even more fun because it truly brings you back to the 90s. The animation and the effects are great though and adds to the game’s character.
I had to force my mom to get me this game for the Sega in the mid-90s and I was so happy when this was made available for use on PCs in the late 90s. It remains one of my favorite shooter games. Good for you, you can easily download the game. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
