    Maken X (魔剣X) is an adventure game for the Sega Dreamcast played in the first person perspective.

    Story

    Maken refers to the sword with special abilities that also allows the game's protagonist, Kay Sagami, to brainjack certain opponents to take control of them.

    Gameplay

    Maken X plays as a first person action adventure game with combat being the main focus. Your character will make use of a sword or sword-like weapon. You'll start off with Kay wielding the Maken sword. To progress through the story you will also run across other characters who can be "Brainjacked" which allows to not only take control of a character, but gain their memories as well as help unfold the story from a different character's viewpoint.

    Characters

    Each character has different stats as well as special attacks which also causes progress in stages to differ between playable characters. You can only Brain jack characters so long as your current Brainjack level matches or exceeds a target character. The previous host character will stay in a level they were list in should there be a need to go back to other characters.

    World Map

    You will have a choice to select a stage from the World Map that will also branch out to other possible paths depending on which character is being used and which order the levels are played in. The map also provides chances to save game progress and

    History

    Development

    Much of the staff behind Maken X were responsible for one of Atlus' flagship series Shin Megami Tensei.

    Legacy

    Maken X was later released in an updated form for the PlayStation 2 under the name Maken Shao: Demon Sword which makes significant gameplay changes such as making the game play from a third person perspective. Sega was not involved with the PlayStation 2 version.

    The story was also adapted for a manga series under the name Maken X Another.
