You won't find pistols, machine guns, rocket launchers, or any of that powerful weaponry in Rune. What you will find however are swords, axes, and hammers. And I'll tell you that there's nothing more fun than bashing your enemies into a bloody mess with some of the weapons you'll find in this game. Possibly one of the neatest things is the ability to pick up the weapons and shields that the enemies drop. You can even pick up severed limbs and heads to use as weapons.
Some creatures require certain tactics to kill, and there are multiple ways to do it.
You can bash through walls, tables, floors, barrels, doors, the list goes on and on. It's always hard to resist smashing your way through a room filled with barrels, it's just so much fun. You collect the weapons as you make your way through the game. Some you can find on weapon racks and others you can pick up by defeating enemies. As you advance through the game you'll find better weapons but you won't lose the weapons you already have.
