The God of all god games. Be a cherub! Grow a village! Become a sword swinging Angel of Death and smite the non believers! Seriously, if you haven't played Actraiser you haven't enjoyed the snes. The hours you waste getting manna and protecting your miniscule but lovable subjects are perfectly balanced by the inclusion of a fantastic sideways scrolling swordfest. The difficulty curve is a bit strange, it's all fairly basic and easy for 90% of the game then boom! End boss battles from hell.

That boss gauntlet is RIDICULOUS.

No lies. I first played this via rental when it was released and used to dread it. Even today I get my arse handed to me.
