Game Review & Impressions
---------------------------------------------------
Released in 1988, Sword of Sodan combines enormous character sprites with sword and sorcery mythos in an attempt to build an engaging action adventure in which you, the player, must halt the machinations of an evil wizard.

Unfortunately, while a great deal of attention was given to the artwork, much less appears to have been spent on the actual game mechanics, which are straight out of the "move right and hit things" playbook. There are traps to avoid and power ups to collect, but the lacklustre combat means that Sword of Sodan never feels like much in the way of fun.
