“Swordsman” is an action game where the player battles hordes of fearsome monsters with a sword. Precise timing is required to bring the sword into the “En garde” position and strike effectively. Some monsters are harder to defeat, especially the dreaded “School Spinach.” The farther to the right a monster is defeated on the screen, the more points the player earns. After each victory, wounds are slightly healed, but the game ends fatally if the player sustains more than four injuries. Skill and strategic planning are essential for survival. Controls: 4 to move left, 6 to move right, and 5 to thrust with the sword.
