Beat boss while defending every fire attack with the shield NPC: "Thanks for saving us, use your shield to block attacks" wow great advice

This looks wonderful, and eons ahead of it's time. Was going to purchase it for the Switch and was letting this video be the decider, SOLD!

I remember playing this with my dad almost all night in my childhood and getting rekt at the boat part. Feeling a little nostalgic now and wanna play again to relive the glory days of neo geo

Oh God I loved this game. Neo Geo made the absolute best games in the 90s. This one was super long and tough, but fair, if it was on an easier setting you really got your money’s worth.

Absolutely superb play through of one of my favorite games of all time. There would be times where I'd go on a long long boring trip with family to visit relatives just for the fact that a nearby restaurant had a cabinet with this game!

How have I never seen a game that's as cool as this?

The hallowed Neo Geo still escapes me. One day, you and I.... We'll have our dance.

This game is so much underrated..

I played this at an arcade on the board walk in New Jersey once. I probably haven't thought about it in 20 years, not sure why I spontaneously remembered it just now.

The nostalgia, oh the nostalgia. I have great memories of playing this game.

The King: "Like, hey, dude. Thanks for saving my kid. Wanna come crash at our place from now on?" Man, if I were that knight, I'd _better_ be getting the Ritz!

The _real_ inspiration for the combat in The Elder Scrolls 1: Arena and so on, had Bethesda thought of a version of their own for the arcade cabinets

I loved this game on the arcades, fighting the giant centipedes used to freak me out! Not to mention the creepy music as you're walking through the castle...

"Knight of Journey, don't stop believin'! Someday, love will find you!"

They had this game at my Local RSL. It used a trackball for movement which was the first time I had ever used one. It was crazy. I want someone to make an indie title in the same vein of crossed swords. I swear i would buy the game 10 times over. Also, that timing at 9:45 with the music. Beautiful.

When the tutorial knight talks, I swear it looks like he's saying "GloowwPOP!" over and over again.

Wow, this looks really good.

The gameplay is very repetitive but I liked it a lot, it doesn't send you to boredom like that other game "The Super Spy". The music is almost identical to "Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder" and I liked it too. I also liked how the game keeps sending you new monsters throughout the game, and the old ones get new moves and new color swaps. Experience system, shops, new weapons, etc. it's great! They say Crossed Swords II is better and I hope to see a playthrough of that one soon. :)

CROSSED SMORDS

I played this on the Neo Geo CD (although it was entirely in Japanese)

If only they build a entire RPG with this fighting concept, could be a 2D Masterpiece, it was impressive back then, but a bit limited. Shining The holy Arc was a bit similar to this in fighting mode, but not in real time like this one.

OK. The first time I saw this game is with the game over screen.

so there's this and super spy, but were there any other games in this style?

i enjoy it, haven't gotten tired of it yet, it's nothing that sticks out in my mind, but it's still a good tune, imo...

Most of the enemies strike at random but some don't. I was actually able to beat this game on my AES in '94 with that one miserable extra guy in stock. Golden winged knights was the most brutal.

@cubex55 i know i didn't mean for it to be so long, i will go there, thanks for the advice, ttyl...

Yea... I suspect cheats are afoot

Remember this game being hard to find in arcades. Expect my arcade had this for a bit. Not many put the time in it. I never got to play it but saw it a lot. Because of one guy would always play this game. My arcade was a 24 hour asian style arcade. Hard core gamers. In Vegas. I used to go Saturday mornings. Cool place, very dark with just two doors open, as they liked to let breeze in, as you can smoke.. Just a little sign. "Mary K's Arcade" all blacked out windows, and sounds of button tapping's and Street Fighter Alpha. You had to dodge homeless people and hookers to get to the arcade. A Blackjack Dealer that got off work would always play this game. You can always tell by the outfit. He would play the crap out of this game for hours. Just cigarette hanging out of his mouth and a stack on quarters on the machine. Never got to play it

why sometimes the shield dissapear?
