  GameSpy.com - Hall of Fame
In Golden Axe, a villain with the immortal name of Death Adder has conquered a peaceful kingdom through the typical methods of kidnapping the royal family and dolling out legions of identical fighters.
Their mission is typical beat-'em-up fare: walk from one end of the kingdom to the other, hack apart the myriad bad guys they encounter, and restore peace to the kingdom by generally killing everything that moves.
Throughout the game, there are times when little impish guys carrying huge cloth bags over their shoulders appear to harass Gilius and his companions.

 Conan: The Dark Axe Walkthrough - IGN FAQs
However, the disadvantages to the axe/mace is it is slower for Conan to wield, it costs more stamina to swing (all axe/mace moves require stamina), and the axe/mace has a remarkably short range, meaning Conan might get bitch slapped by enemies with long range weapons before he lands a blow.
If you focused on upgrading the axe's moves, you should be able to wipe the boss out in three cycles of the shield being down (normal).
Conan should be using the Dark Axe extensively and investing experience to fill out the rest of the axe moves and boost vital sword skills if he's dragged into Ben Morgh.

 Sega Ages 2500: Golden Axe Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Essentially, the game is played in 2D, but with some good use of a rotating camera the game almost feels like it's in 3D.
Golden Axe was designed to be a game to be played over and over again, but when you have to sit through a five minute cut scene that you just saw yesterday to make it to level two, you'll think twice before starting to play this game.
Games like Dynasty Warriors and Drag-on Dragoon are essentially button mashing beat-em ups, but they have more features beyond the 16-bit era.
