Lord of the Sword

Landau explores a 3rd-person side-scrolling world in a non-linear way, with some areas only accessible after defeating enemies or collecting items. The Kingdom of Baljinya features towns and villages where Landau can rest and gather information, as well as castles that require completion of tasks to enter. The environment includes diverse terrains like flatlands, forests, mountains, and swamps, each with its own set of monsters.

Landau wields two weapons: a sword and a bow. The sword is used by pressing button 2 while standing, kneeling, or jumping, while the bow is used by pressing button 1 when standing or kneeling. Landau can't walk and attack at the same time; he'll find new swords and bows as he progresses.

Landau has only one life, but the game offers a continue feature up to 10 times.
