“Kenseiden”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Kenseiden stars Hayato, a samurai that has to fight against warlocks and evil spirits that plague 16th century Japan. The warlocks stole the five secret scrolls and the sword of the Dragon Lord. Hayato, who has dragon blood in his veins, must recover the scrolls and sword and enter the castle and kill Oda Nobunaga.

The game was released as Hwarang-ui Geom (화랑의 검, lit. "Sword of the Flower Knight") in Korea and has the main character sprite altered to look like a Korean warrior and the Japanese map changed to a map of Korea.^[3] In the original Japanese version, Hayato is blond. In the Western versions he has black hair.

Reception

Upon release, The Games Machine gave the game an 86% score, considering it one of the best "hack-'n-slay" games due to its "simple but highly playable action and superb presentation."^[6] Computer and Video Games gave it an 85% score, describing it as a "huge" role-playing adventure with exploration, "truly superb" still screens and "plenty of brain-bending puzzles" to last "weeks on end!"^[4]

Retrospectively, Levi Buchanan of IGN reviewed Kenseiden. He gave the game a 7.0 and said "even though I found the choice to go grim interesting and the visuals engaging, I have discovered my appreciation for Kenseiden was more of a 'love the one your with' sentiment. Master System junkies should still seek it out and give it a go, but there are indeed better games for the console that deserve your renewed attention."^[5]
