The premise, in the publisher's words
This game allows you to play two different versions of the Atari arcade classic, Warlords. One faithfully emulates the four-player cocktail cabinet version, complete with cabinet art and buttons framing the action. The second version, "Warlords Updated," offers 32-bit graphics with themes that advance through time as you advance through levels. The sound is improved, background music is offered, and a floating power-up with thirteen different effects -- both helpful and hindering -- provides an alternative target. Network play is supported, where in the classic version multiplayer means sharing the same keyboard. Also available through Atari Revival.
