The Savage Sword

It's like Conan the Barbarian, only different. Somebody at Taito obviously wasn't paying attention when they released this game, not to mention the fact it totally butchers the otherwise awesome Rastan Saga.

I didn't realize my childhood was so filled with homo-erotica until this day.

this game is totally awful. but as a kid I played it a lot in the arcade simply because it had some seriously amazing music. Back in the day before the internet where we could just rip that shit for ourselves (I have have ripped the songs off this game since), i actually payed real quarters and survived this game just to hear that music.

if you listen to the soundtrack to this even today it's totally kick ass.

I think it was an in-joke. The five-dollar word for masturbation is "onanism", and in Japanese it's called "onani". The term comes from the Old Testament. Onan was ordered to have sex with his brother's widow and give her children. He had sex, but "spilled his seed" and God slew him.

Three guesses what the Sword of Onan is.

nice video! how could they miss the C in Conan? awesome cheesy 80's snth music, was this for the arcade or a game system?

this game is much better than the original rastan. one of the top 5 arcade games ever.
