Trashy Games #51: Sword Of Sodan (MegaDrive)

Said to be the worst beat-'em-up game ever made, where it's really bland and tedious and not as exciting as other games of the same genre. The cool thing about it is that when the main character crouches down, he can stab his enemies in the groin. I think the female main character can do that as well... I haven't really tried it out with her.

Also to note, I've gotten much further than my last video and that's only because I increased the number of lives and lowered the difficulty.

@SilkyMuggs - Hmm... no, but he does look a bit like him though.

From its shitty the video didn't want to load.

I had an error thingy.

Um... this game is boring.

[CrashManEXE]

The video player worked for me.

[dedeschwede]

you can chop off the giants' heads.

[CrashManEXE]

And how can you do that?

[smoke072]

Those noises the enemies make when they get hit and die are very annoying. At the end, how are you supposed to fight two huge giants at the same time while your energy is being sucked by some strange bug, talk about unfair advantage.

I bought this game when I was a child, damnit! it was terribly awful... Anyway, 2 hints:

1.- If you pause the game you will be able to use the potions. If u combine them, some *cool* effects can be given p.e: purple+red= extra life; orange+purple = flaming sword. There was invulnerability too I think...

2.- If u press "up" when swinging your sword, u will make a vertical short-range attack that will hit the giants and the... "birds"...

Shitty game.

[RobRobertTheGameDude]

When you kill the bad guys, they sound like they have bad indigestion.

This game is very Homoerotic. Just simply gay looking. The hero looks like he just came out of a place for "special" kids. He sofa king we todd ed.

@CrashManEXE You have to use the potions you collected in the game. Just pause and click on the potion that give you invisibility (I think it's the Blue or purple potion) and use them to kill the armored giants. :D

4:15 the only reason it left, was because you kick the monster in one giant nut

[angelcrisis44]

this is what you call a desprite atempt at a side scroller

@leppaberry The amazing thing is that it WAS a decent game. The original version on the Amiga was, if not actually good, then at least much better than this heap o' crap -- the enemies only approached from one side, the rising spikes were telegraphed better, the barbarian hero didn't walk like he was recovering from hip replacement surgery, etc.

[leppaberry]

this could've been a decent game

[Saieras]

Boom. Boom boom. Boom. Heeey...
