Here | | you will fight all six of your opponents again, but this time it will be an | | endurance-type match where you have to defeat all six of them, plus a clone | | of yourself, on one life bar. If you can do this, then you can truly say | | you've mastered your given character. | |_____________________________________________________________________________| _______________ _/ The Dracolich \___________________________________________________________ |=============================================================================| | Arcade lore, and a Gamepro article, indicated that an update to Primal Rage | | was planned that would include a boss fighter to be faced on the moon once | | the seven basic fighters had been defeated. This boss, whose name is not | | known, was to be a dracolich. A dracolich would be the animated bones of a | | dinosaur-like creature. It was described as having a horn, six claws, and | | a spiked tail. It was said to be able to fly and have the ability to suck | | its foe's life and heal itself. Sadly, this never came to be and every | | console version of Primal Rage only includes the seven basic fighters. | |_____________________________________________________________________________| ______________________ ____________________________________________________/ Alternate Game Modes \_ |=============================================================================| | Endurance | | Selectable from the title screen, Endurace Mode allows you to pick four of | | the fighters and use them against four computer opponents. You begin with | | your first fighter and battle the computer's first fighter. Whoever wins | | faces their foe's second fighter, and so on until only one player has any | | fighters left. | | | | Tug-Of-War | | Selectable from the title screen, Tug-Of-War pits two fighters against one | | another like normal. The catch here is that the players share the same | | life bar. By hitting one's foe it moves the life bar in their direction. | | The match ends when one player fills the bar all the way up in their favor | |_____________________________________________________________________________| ____________ _/ Copyrights \______________________________________________________________ |=============================================================================| | Primal Rage is (c) Atari/Midway Games | |_____________________________________________________________________________|
