Gameplay
There are seven stages for gamers to play through; most of the enemies in each stage are merely a palette swap of each other.[4] Defeating enemies allow Macress to gain access to power-ups that will give him physical enhancement which let the player progress past places within the stages, like angel's wings, a merman like tail, and the strong body of a horse like centaur.[2]
Plot
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.[2]
Reception
Mean Machines gave it a score of 72%, opining "this Rastan-like game could have done with better graphics and sound, but as it stands, Saint Sword is a fairly playable effort."[3]
