Art thou the man who will be King or just another rogue with a sword? Your name is Landau. Here's your chance to prove thy worthiness to the council of Elders. The followers of the evil Ra Goan have toppled the king from the throne. None are brave enough to take his place. The Elders have decreed that any man who can pass three tests will become King of Baljinya. Find the Tree of Merill. Defeat the Goblin of Balala Valley. Destroy the Statue of Evil. It sounds easy. But the followers of Ra Goan are waiting to stop you! It's an adventure that will take you across rivers and oceans, through swamps and over mountains. You have a sword and a bow. But magical weapons may become yours…for a price. Pass the tests and you shall be king. But remember: There's more to being a Lord of The Sword than hacking apart thine enemies!

Lord of the Sword is one of the early RPG games released for the Sega Master System, but if you think that means sickeningly cute looking little men and women with blue and pink hair running around with cheesy grins on their faces you should look elsewhere - Lord of the sword is game that takes itself a bit more seriously than that. I remember my sister received this game in 1988 as a birthday present (but wasn't long before i nicked it) and remember being really confused as to what I was supposed to be doing in this game, actually reading the text at the start of the game, telling you about the 3 tasks you must do in order to be crowned king of Baljinya, it was actually pretty clear, but it can be a little frustrating figuring out exactly where you have to go in this game, the map that comes inside the instruction manual isn't exactly helpful. Underneath the story line of the game Lord of the sword is basically a side scrolling hack 'n slash adventure game similar to Captain Silver that has had RPG elements and quests added to it. You start off in the village of Harfoot with your sword and bow(the bow is awesome and very well done), and naturally being an adventurer you want to try and become king of the land. You are give the three tasks at the start of the game, but theres much more to be done than three tasks. First up is the book of evil, you have to collect it from the Wizard in Amon, and then take it to Mount Morgus and cast it into the lava in order to destroy it. It can be quite funny sometimes because there are enemies called „book theif“ who will actually try and steal the book from you! If this happens the game is not over, but you don't get the book back, I have never completed the game after the book has been stolen, so if anyone can tell me what happens in this case it'd be great to hear from you. Another task you have is to find the royal symbol, which can only be found by destroying the tree of Merill. But first you must speak to „the tree people“ to find out where the tree of Merill is located. Hmm talking trees and items that must be destoyed in mountains of fire, while being chased by people after the book, Is anyone seeing any similarities to J.R.R. Tolkien's masterpiece here? […] Lord of the Sword is a game many people overlook, due to the daunting size of the task without a save feature, I would say because of this many people have deprived themselves of a great gaming experience, if only they would give the game a chance I'm sure they would come to see Lord of the Sword for the great game it is. Sure the game is by no means perfect, but its far superior to other „RPG“ games such as the terrible official Dungeons & Dragons game „Heroes of the Lance“. Please give this game the chance it deserves! You will wander around for a long time, but once you have finished it you will feel a great sense of achievement for finishing this mammoth of a game that few people dare touch. - www.smstributes.co.uk
