Saint Sword

Saint Sword (セイントソード) is a hack-and-slash action game developed by Cyclone Systems and published by Taito for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive in 1991.

There are seven stages for gamers to play through; most of the enemies in each stage are merely a palette swap of each other. Defeating enemies allow Macress to gain access to power-ups that will give him physical enhancement like angel's wings and the strong body of a horse.

Taking place in a Greek Mythological setting, players control the Greek Titan Macress (unique to this work of fiction) as he travels back in time in order to prevent the demoness Gorgon from taking over the entire world.
