Story Of Arado Overview
Story of Arado was one of those side-scrolling beat 'em ups that felt right at home in the Flash era. You'd find it on a gaming portal, load it up, and be thrown into a pixelated cityscape without much fuss. It had that straightforward, no-frills approach common to many games from that time, built for quick sessions in a browser window.
You control a lone fighter moving from left to right, clearing each screen of enemies before moving on. The main objective is simple: fight through waves of opponents to reach the end of the stage. You have a basic move set, including punches, kicks, and a block to mitigate damage. The pacing is brisk, and the difficulty can spike with certain enemy types that require specific timing to defeat. It feels like a condensed, slightly janky tribute to the arcade brawlers of the 1990s.
