Deadly Towers is an action game released in 1986 for the Nintendo NES. Players control a hero tasked with ascending a treacherous tower filled with numerous enemies and traps. The main objective is to defeat the evil wizard at the top by collecting keys and weapons while navigating through multiple floors.
The game features a deliberate and somewhat slow pace, emphasizing careful exploration and strategic combat. Players must manage limited resources and uncover hidden secrets to progress. A unique mechanic is the ability to wield magic swords that can be upgraded, allowing for a variety of attack styles depending on the weapon equipped.
What sets Deadly Towers apart is its maze-like tower design combined with RPG elements, such as item collection and character progression, which was unusual for action games of its time. The game’s distinctive top-down perspective and challenging level layout provide a blend of action and adventure that offers a complex experience on the NES platform.
