    SpellCaster is an action game by Sega for the Sega Master System. It is a reskin of Kujaku Ou, a game based on the manga series of the same name.

    Storyline

    Evil forces have been attacking temples, but no one knows who or why. Daikak, the head of Summit Temple, calls on a magician, Kane, to fight this evil.

    Gameplay

    Outside: 1 jumps. 2 shoots a ball of magic; hold 2 for stronger attacks. There are a variety of magic spells you can perform:  PAUSE  opens the menu to select a spell, returning to the game and holding 2 then pressing Down casts it. There are also various items, weapons, and armor to obtain.

    Within temples: You can do a variety of things within temples; the commands should be self-explanatory. Use "Move" to leave.
