Sword Of Sodan

Choose to be either male or female, then infiltrate the evil Zoras' lair, chopping up his pals on the way to the final confrontation with the lord of evil!

What We Said Then

Jaz: At first it looks pretty tasty with impressive opening screens, large sprites, colourful backdrops and great sound. However, good as though they may be, they simply don't paper over the gaping cracks in Sword Of Sodan's gameplay.

Matt: The graphics are superb and the sound isn't bad, but the gameplay is sadly lacking in any sort of variety whatsoever.

What We Say Now

Jaz: Sword Of Sodan is a load of old tosh! Presentation, graphics and sound down by 10%. 15% off playability, lastability and overall.

Rich: The gameplay is just too repetitive. As far as marks go, this would probably just scrape around 50% if it was reviewed.
