Game Overview

Athena-mame is a 1986 arcade game by SNK, emulated through MAME. It arrived during a period when side-scrolling action games were common, and it stood out with its mythological theme and unusual protagonist. The game does not try to blend in with more realistic platformers of its time, instead embracing a strange and colorful visual style.

You control Princess Athena, who wears a toga and wields a sword against a menagerie of bizarre Greek monsters. The main objective is to navigate through a series of side-scrolling stages, defeating enemies and avoiding environmental hazards. Signature mechanics include screen-by-screen exploration, platforming with unpredictable jumps, and collecting power-ups that change your weapon. The pacing is fast, and the difficulty is steep, especially with jumps that demand precise timing. It feels like a chaotic, slightly unhinged trip through a mythological theme park.
