As you attempt finding your way home while battling all kinds of enemies, you uncover a conspiracy threatening Sparta, and in order to stop it you embark on a trip to the Underworld.Like every game of it's type, Sparta allows you to collect different weapons in conjunction with your trusty sword and shield, including axes, chains, twin scimitars and other equipment. You also collect orbs to restore King Argos' health and experience points for the penultimate face-off against the game's bosses.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })An Immediate Sequel simply titled Hero of Sparta II was released in 2010.

Coup de Grâce Cutscene | |
| Hero of Sparta (Video Game) / int_11204355 | comment |
Coup de Grâce Cutscene: Both games throws in one of these whenever Argos executes a higher-level enemy using a special attack. Notably by jumping onto a minotaur's back and thrushing his sword through it's nape, knocking a gorgon down and slitting her jugular, performing a penetrating stab through a ghoul's gut, and so on. And somehow nearby enemies will not attempt to interrupt the cutscene! | |

Virgin Sacrifice: The Oracle, your benefactor and guide for most of the game, was captured by Hades to be sacrificed for more power. King Argos interrupts him at the last moment, and the Lord of Darkness offers King Argos to perform the sacrifice for him in exchange for a way home - but it was subverted with the Oracle revealing it to be an illusion - and a Secret Test of Character for King Argos to prove his allegiance. | |

Giant Mook | |
| Hero of Sparta (Video Game) / int_a8826e1e | comment |
Giant Mook: Gigantic scorpions in the first game, whose stingers can skewer and lift Argois off his feet for extra damage. The largest Minotaur-type enemies might count based on their size, if not for the fact that they're the Fake Ultimate Mook opponents who despite looking really though, is still really easy to defeat. The sequel's Egypt stage have the "Big Mouth" enemies, demons with bulging girths and several times larger than other mooks. Whose size and kevlard makes it harder to defeat. The Nemean Lion and Cretan Bull from the sequel, both of them large enough to attempt trampling over Argos. | |

Dual Wield: Ishtar's tears, a pair of nifty-looking scimitars smaller than Argos' default sword, but much faster. That he can wield to kick ass using both simultaneously. The Sphinx Claws in the sequel, two gauntlets worn on each hand. The Fish People enemies in the sequel use twin curved knives made of bones. | |
