{{C}} jumps. By default, {{B}} fires a magic ball; hold down to charge a ball. Throughout the course of the game, you collect new spells; {{A}} changes spells and {{B}} uses them, complete with charging ability (some such as the flamethrower ''require'' charging).
+
{{ScreenThumb|Mystic Defender, Yamato.png|width=200|Yamato}}
 +
The game is an action platformer. Yamato walks with {{left}} and {{right}}, crouches with {{down}}, and jumps with {{C}}. His means of offense is casting spells with {{B}}, which damage enemies and their projectiles. He has a charge meter that is charged by holding {{B}}, which increases the power of his magic; the charged spell is cast by releasing {{B}}. Spells can be charged while crouching and jumping, but the charge meter pauses when Yamato is walking. Yamato can find items that let him increase his charge meter faster. He starts with the ability to quickly throw energy balls, but he obtains other spells throughout the course of the game. He can switch between each spell in order with {{A}}.
 +
 
 +
Yamato has three hit points and loses one whenever he takes damage from an enemy. Some enemies only do half a point of damage, though the damage is not indicated until a full point is lost. He can find items that replenish his health. His health is also replenished at the start of each round. If he loses all of his health, he loses a life. He is revived in the same place that he died (or nearby if he died in a pit or similar) rather than at the beginning of the level. If he loses all of his lives, the game ends, but it can be continued as long as the player has continues remaining. There are three difficulty levels (Easy 1, Easy 2, and Normal), which change the number of lives and continues that the player starts the game with.

    Mystic Defender, known in Brazil as Mystic Defense and in South Korea as On Dal Jang Goon (온달장군), is a reskinned version of Kujaku Ou 2: Geneijou. It was first published in the United States in December 1989 by Sega, then it was brought to Europe, Brazil, and South Korea the following year.

    Story

    Mystic Defender takes place in an alternate Japan fantasy setting in which the anarchistic sorcerer Zareth kidnaps a young woman named Alexandra. Zareth plans to use Alexandra as a sacrifice for the resurrecting of an ancient and evil god known as Zao. Not long after the kidnapping, Zareth's plan becomes apparent as Azuchi castle, the dwelling of Zao, rises from the waters.

    Joe Yamato, an experienced sorcerer, is called into action to save Alexandra and stop Zareth's plan to resurrect Zao by battling his way through the dark and bizarre disciples and demons of Zao.

    Gameplay

    Mystic Defender, Yamato.png

    Yamato

    The game is an action platformer. Yamato walks with Left and Right, crouches with Down, and jumps with C. His means of offense is casting spells with B, which damage enemies and their projectiles. He has a charge meter that is charged by holding B, which increases the power of his magic; the charged spell is cast by releasing B. Spells can be charged while crouching and jumping, but the charge meter pauses when Yamato is walking. Yamato can find items that let him increase his charge meter faster. He starts with the ability to quickly throw energy balls, but he obtains other spells throughout the course of the game. He can switch between each spell in order with A.

    Yamato has three hit points and loses one whenever he takes damage from an enemy. Some enemies only do half a point of damage, though the damage is not indicated until a full point is lost. He can find items that replenish his health. His health is also replenished at the start of each round. If he loses all of his health, he loses a life. He is revived in the same place that he died (or nearby if he died in a pit or similar) rather than at the beginning of the level. If he loses all of his lives, the game ends, but it can be continued as long as the player has continues remaining. There are three difficulty levels (Easy 1, Easy 2, and Normal), which change the number of lives and continues that the player starts the game with.
