The action can be described as a mix between Gauntlet and a moderately complex fighting game: Like in Gauntlet, you take on the role of a single warrior fighting against a horde of enemies, but instead of just having an
attack button and a magic button, you have a
decent variety of close - combat moves in addition to both long - range and short - range spells, combos, and defensive moves.
Combos are easy to string together, and Thor has a
decent amount of
attack variety in melee, ranged, flying, and super moves.
