The game was shown from birds view (or maybe isometric?), on Apple IIe IIRC.



You controlled a guy with axe which was IIRC constantyly walking forward, but you could rotate him left of right. So was the other player. You had an axe in one hand, and each time you moved with axe through other player, you damaged him which was shown as more dark area (and eventually killed him, winning the score). If you got to one side of the screen it would scroll (as only part of playing area was shown at any time on the screen).



There was also (one or more?) flying discs, and if you stepped on it you would fly forward at much higher speed (which could work for you, or against you, depending how good you were).



I think you could choose if your wanted to play against other player or against computer.



(Some of the details of my memory might be smudged by time, of course)



Does anybody remember the name of the game?

    @Raffzahn no, unfortunately I don't remember the story or much else. I think when guy was damaged there was a blood dripping as he moved (the more damaged he was, the more blood), but that could be my imagination. I'm hoping someone might remember the gameplay and thus remember the game
