When this was first released, the general consensus of opinion was a resounding yawn. Now Targhan is out on budget and, quite frankly, it's still as uninteresting now as it ever war, even for a fiver. It's your basic everyday hack 'n slash, with a smidgen of puzzle solving thrown in. The beefcake hero leaps around mashing demons of darkness to a pulp with a mere flex of his biceps. The graphics are okay, and some of the backdrops are very well drawn indeed, but the animation is lacking in a lot of ways, with sprites jerking about like macabre breakdancers (remember those?), and the sound is reasonable, but a little sparse.

Essentially, Targhan can be summed up in one word... boring.

Pretty yawnsome all round. Not the best of sword-slingers to start with, so pocket that fiver and spend it on something worthwhile.
