Name: Saint Sword
Author/Vendor: Taito
Released: 1991
Type: Action
Language: English, Japanese, and Spanish
Premise: You play a warrior possessed with mystic powers who does that superhero thing of battling endless hordes of evil beings. Arcade game based on the Japanese anime series Saint Seiya. A Spanish-dubbed version of the show was also syndicated throughout Central and South America under the title Los Caballeros del Zodiaco.
Impressions: Looks and plays about like the first Valis game. If you can handle that, then you can handle this.
Variations: I have not seen either the Japanese or Spanish releases. I am 95% certain that a Japanese version exists, and I am about 75% certain that a Spanish version exists. Those titles would be the same as the respective TV titles.
Recommended Emu: Genecyst X
