It runs on [[Namco System 2]] hardware. A home version for the [[Sega Mega Drive|Mega Drive/Genesis]] was released in [[1990 in video gaming|1990]]. The game features a plot loosely based on [[Greek mythology]]. The player takes control of the knight [[Apollo]], the god of the sun, who sets off on his [[pegasus]] to rescue his lover, [[Artemis]], the goddess of the moon, from the dark lord [[Typhon]]. ==Gameplay== [[File:Phel0000.png|thumb|left|Gameplay of ''Phelios''.]] The player controls Apollo who is mounted on the back of his winged horse Pegasus. Pressing the fire button makes his sword fire a tiny shot, while holding it down charges the sword, firing a bigger fireball upon release. Even the smallest enemies take multiple hits, so the standard shot is of little use. This game also features voice samples (in [[Japanese language|Japanese]]). ==External links== *''[http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=P&game_id=9003 Phelios]'' on the [[Killer List of Videogames]] *[http://arcade.svatopluk.com/phelios/ ''Phelios'' screenshots] [[Category:1988 video games]] [[Category:Arcade games]] [[Category:Japan-exclusive video games]] [[Category:Namco games]] [[Category:Scrolling shooters]] [[Category:Sega Mega Drive games]] [[Category:Video games developed in Japan]] [[Category:Virtual Console games]] [[fr:Phelios]] [[ja:フェリオス]] [[pt:Phelios]]
