Brave Heart 2 is one of those old-school Flash games where you just go wild smashing enemies before the clock runs out. You’ve got three lives to start, but if you don’t clear the screen fast enough—boom, one life gone. The pressure’s on, but at least you can earn an extra life every 5000 points, which helps when things get messy.

Controls are simple: WASD to move, J to slash, K to block—though I always forget to block until it’s too late. U and I pull off flashier skills, but timing them right takes practice. The first time I played, I just button-mashed and got wrecked in 30 seconds. Not my proudest moment.

It’s straightforward, but that’s the charm—no complicated mechanics, just pure, frantic action. You’ll either love the adrenaline or rage-quit after losing all three lives in a row (guilty).
