Wings of Death is a shoot 'em up game released in 1990 for Atari ST and Amiga, developed by Eclipse Software and distributed by Thalion Software. The two versions of the game are mostly the same, the only noticeable difference is in the sounds. Its working titles were Wings of War and Spellbinder.
The player takes role of Sagyr, a powerful magician at odds with the witch queen Xandrilia. Using trickery, his sworn enemy has managed to turn him onto a winged creature. Now the player's role is to guide Sagyr in his quest to destroy evil and win the spell that will turn him back into a human being.
[edit] Gameplay
Sagyr may transform into several forms, including a giant eagle, a griffon, and a dragon). His quest takes place through six levels, from Sagyr's castle to Xandrilia's domain.
