Plenty of RPG action as you strut around a scrolling landscape beating up meanies and saving the kingdom from impending doom (or something).

Jaz: I don't like RPGs much; there's too much brainwork involved for my liking.

Matt: Sword Of Vermillion is easily the best RPG yet released on the Megadrive; its graphics are excellent and the playability is of a high standard.

Jaz: Some things don't change, like the fact that I still don't like RPGs and they still make my brain hurt. But other things do, like the marks being 20% less that we gave them then right across the board.

Rich: (Yawn!) Umm? Sorry, but Sword Of Vermillion looks very dull and dated nowadays, compared to the links of Shining Force and Landstalker. Take those marks down to the low 70s.
