Sword of Sodan

Like Søren Grønbech's other game Datastorm, Sword of Sodan stood out above all for its technology, as the sprites were large and unmistakable. Your task (either as hero or heroine) is to dethrone the tyrannical Zoras the Necromancer and avenge the murder of your father. There are 11 levels with indoor and outdoor areas for you to complete. Your character has a range of sword and jumping techniques that you must use to your best advantage to progress. The game features digitized sounds and speech as well as an action replay feature, an unusual concept outside of sports games at the time.
