I applaud the use of the third picture. Both because it hints at the quality of the title via its misspelling of "against" and also because it shows the really lazy trope of the alleged super-tough boss who is utterly confident he'd completely destroy you in a fight...but, nah, you're cool...UNLESS you go to his castle, likely gaining power the entire way so that you can get the win.

At least the ones who, say, kill every baby born on a specific day because a prophecy said someone born that day will kill them, are being proactive, even if their attempts are doomed. This guy's basically, "GOTCHA!!! Oh...wait, it is time for brunch and I am a bit peckish. Uh, look dude, just don't go to my castle and we can be cool, okay?"

I always seem to wind up with games like this.

Okay, maybe "wind up" isn't correct. I do sometimes go looking for AlphaMarathon stuff, and that's how I typically find these games. I bought this one as an alt for an AlphaMarathon a few years ago.

But yeah, this game does utterly lack in creativity, and the third picture tells you a lot about it.
