''Will Rock'' is a first-person shooter released in North America on June 9 and Europe on June 13, 2003. This first game, developed on the Saber 3D engine, by Saber Interactive and published by Ubisoft, did not receive huge media attention, but did polarize reviewers who ran the gamut with scores of 90s down to 20s,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Will Rock Reviews and Articles for PC )〕 and some likened the title to a poorer version of ''Serious Sam''. In ''Rock'', the player takes on the persona of the title character Willford Rockwell, an archeology student, who is faced with the aftermath of a fanatical group called the Olympian Restoration Army (ORA), who somehow have managed to bring back to life a host of mythological creatures from Ancient Greece, including Zeus, king of the Gods, who has abducted Will's girlfriend Emma. Will is recruited by Prometheus, the Greek Titan of fire and craft, to destroy Zeus and his minions—and rescue his girlfriend. There are ten levels in the single player and coop versions. Many reviewers noted the massive numbers of enemies, prompting IGN to remark that it "elevates the experience to a kind of inspired lunacy." At some points in the game it is possible to be attacked by dozens of different types of enemies simultaneously, and some creatures, such as axe-throwing minotaurs, split into two more attackers when "killed". Balancing this is the player's arsenal; among the weapons at his disposal are acid, atomic and "Medusa" guns, and the more standard pistol, shotgun, crossbow, fireball thrower, minigun and grenades. A shovel is also included as a melee weapon. ==Enemies== Many enemies in Will Rock are deliberately borrowed from Greek mythological monsters. *Harpy; the first enemy that you will encounter, an eagle who spits fire. *Satyr; archer with surprising accuracy. *Skeleton foot-soldier; fast-moving skeleton using sword and shield. *Range skeleton; as above but throwing flaming javelins. *Minotaur; general enemy throws flaming axes. When killed it morphs into two blood minotaurs. *Blood minotaur; smaller and weaker, but more berserk. *Sphinx; disguises as statue; shoots laser bolts when player passes by. *Mace wielder; Greek soldiers throwing flaming maces. They usually appear with or without headgear. *Rat; sprints towards an enemy and explodes. *Tiger; fast-moving enemy, likes to leap at you, usually in groups. Attack style is to run around you and leap when you are not expecting. *Lion; fast-moving enemy, likes to leap at you. Attack style is to run around you and leap when you are not expecting. *Atlas; disguises as Colossus statue, holds the earth on its back. *Discus throwers; disguises as statue, and throws a flaming discus. *Crocodile; Easily avoided but can bite you and inflict injury. *Mini Cerberus; hordes of smaller three headed dogs, vicious, hard to beat. *Knife wielder; throws blue flaming knives at player. *Centaur; living centaur, charges with spear, hard to hit, very fast. *Cyclops; they come in small and large sizes, and attack using flaming rocks. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Will Rock」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
