Description
Athena is a platformer arcade game, also released on a number of consoles. It was developed by SNK for the arcade, and was ported to the NES by Micronics, and a number of other platforms by Ocean Software. The game featured a female protagonist, although explicitly utilizing the female body as a selling-feature for the game.
Storyline
The princess Athena of the heavenly kingdom of Victory was bored of the monotonous life of the palace and goes to seek adventure, opening the door that is not supposed to be opened. She falls from the skies (losing her dress in the process) and enters the Fantasy World, controlled by Dante. Athena must defeat a number of beast-like warriors and dangers in order to eventually defeat Dante, free Fantasy World, and return to her own kingdom.
