Kenseiden — About this game
Hayato travels through provinces haunted by monsters, seeking the secret scrolls and the Dragon King’s sword. Ordinary stages demand a safe route to the exit, but a warlock must be defeated before you can advance. Each recovered scroll expands your sword skills, giving exploration a direct role in combat. Training grounds offer another choice: dodge arrows and spears to earn stronger protection or a larger life meter, or pass them by. Your health and the narrow footing matter as much as the reach of your blade.
