nintendo Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 (edited) There is a sequel/spinoff of this game called Demon Sword for the NES. Edited July 17, 2007 by nintendo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdub_bobby Posted July 17, 2007 Author Share Posted July 17, 2007 How is Demon Sword a spinoff/sequel to TLoK? From what information I can find, they share a publisher (Taito), a theme (martial arts), a genre (side-scrolling platform fighting), and a style (ridiculously floaty jumping), but aren't really connected otherwise.

Yeah, it's not a sequel but I'd at least say a spinoff since it pretty much uses the same game mechanics as Legend of Kage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdub_bobby Posted July 24, 2007 Author Share Posted July 24, 2007 I've never really liked this game - it just doesn't control very well - but I gave it another try. 9,750 Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadrunner Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 34,050 What's the deal with the part where the bad guys fall upside down from the sky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubufubu Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 593,300 None of you want to know just how incredibly hard this score was to attain. The Legend of Kage has, by far, the cheapest A.I. that I have ever encountered in an 8-bit game. I was on the 5th loop here when I lost my last life.
