Beyond Oasis, known in Europe as The Story of Thor, is an action-adventure game developed by Ancient and published by Sega for the Sega Genesis.The player takes the role of Prince Ali, who has discovered a buried gold “armlet” which once belonged to a wizard who waged a long war against the evil wielder of a silver armlet. Gameplay: The game has action adventure elements similar to The Legend of Zelda series. The player controls Prince Ali and takes him across the maps to fulfill his quest. Along the way the player picks up special items to restore health and magic, special weapons to help defeat enemies, and four magic spirits found in shrines to aid Prince Ali’s mission. Prince Ali’s default weapon is his knife, which can perform special attacks and has unlimited usage. Also during the course of the game the player can equip Prince Ali with special weapons such as swords, crossbows, and bombs. Some crossbows (and a sword) can ignite their targets on fire. However, unlike the knife, these weapons do not have unlimited usage and will break after a set number of uses.
