"Greed and wickedness will lead them to your lifeblood. They come when your strength is waining. Your mighty mass, now a shackle.

We shall purge the vultures from our land."

The Old One is a one handed wave survival game where you play the part of an ageing Stone Titan, too weak to hold himself up, charged with the burden of keeping a precious Diamond atop it's head.

Use your stone mace fists to keep them at distance. If they grapple to your head, shake them off! For it's only one more step until they reach the precious Diamond, which is not without it's own defences. Remember however, this Old one can only use one physical weapon at a time and he's slow. So place and time your attacks well.

Do try this at max res fullscreen from the windows download if you can.

Cheers
