Basic moves include: a quick and a strong attack with weapons, kicks, sidesteps, and throws.
Additional attacks can be performed by pressing the standard attack buttons in different positions or combined with directional buttons.
Counter attacks are also possible, but require more complicated button combinations and good timing.
Standard moves can be linked to combos and each character has a number of individual special moves that require specific button combinations to be used.
Battle arenas feature multiple levels and usually contain hazards like acid pools or swinging axes that deal damage when touched.
Some arenas also contain interactive objects like plant pots or torches that can be thrown at opponents.
The game is fairly bloody (the gore can be turned off in the options menu) and all characters have their own finishing moves (called executions) - particularly brutal ways of killing an opponent.
About Nintendo 64
The Nintendo 64 (1996) stuck with cartridges after most competitors moved to CDs, trading longer load times for near-instant game access and durability that's held up well over nearly three decades. N64 cartridges are largely intact and functional today, and while common titles are affordable, several late-release and multiplayer-focused games with smaller print runs have become firmly established as valuable collector pieces.
Gamevaro tracks Mace: The Dark Age for Nintendo 64 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Mace: The Dark Age to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This N64 release dates back to 1997.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Mace: The Dark Age, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo 64 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
