Story

The game stars a wanderer who does not know his own history and has a strange crest on his hand. An elder put this wanderer in charge of guarding his sword, which he stashed in a cave, but the thief Zakkar came in and took it while the wanderer was busy fooling around, and now the elder has forced him to retrieve the sword... too bad everything else has to go wrong today too!

Gameplay

The game takes a Zelda-like top-down perspective. jumps. swings the primary weapon (by default a short sword). uses a magic power.  START  opens up a menu which displays the status, equip weapons/armor/magic powers, check items, and save.

History

Ogino, a manga author best known for Kujaku Ou/Spirit Warrior (which have had two games based on it developed by Sega), directed the game and created its story and characters; KNU provided sound.

A soundtrack album was released the same year, Image from King Colossus: Tougi Ou no Gensou Kumikyoku.
