About Stranger of Sword City

About this game

A story of gods and humans, fate and will...

Stranger of Sword City is a dungeon crawler role-playing game from Team Muramasa. After your plane flies through a strange rift and crashes, you awaken as the sole survivor to an unfamiliar land lit by stars you’ve never seen. This is the Sword City Escario, a dark fantasy world that combines magic and technology. Quickly marked as the Chosen One, the Stranger of Sword City, you must defend this place with your life. Choose your allegiances carefully as you scour this land for a way home…

Stranger of Sword City, at its core, a game about death and fighting against vanishing forever. You will discover new meaning in the choices you make to survive against all odds. You will define yourself by the lives of those you leave behind, by the people you align yourself with, and the experiences you have on each new venture into the dark labyrinths that threaten to trap you.

In Stranger of Sword City, perfect your DRPG skills and navigate your way through a land of fantasy races, fierce monsters, and treacherous labyrinths. Explore labyrinths to slay the powerful Lineage Type monsters within and take their Blood Crystals to increase your power. Who you decide to trust, be it the Kingdom, Medell Co., or the Strangers Guild, is entirely up to you. But choose wisely. Your fate depends on it.

Your Official Stranger of Sword City Steam Key gives you:

 

  • A Surprising Dark Fantasy: Traditional hardcore elements, like perma-death and Life Points, combine with a new Ambush system for new and challenging gameplay possibilities.

  • A game to be played your own way: Sex, appearance, class, and more are fully customizable and allow you to create a party with strategically-planned race and class specialties.

  • Competition in the Dungeon: Unlike most dRPGs, Stranger of Sword City won't leave you as a stranger among your peers.

  • Stunning Artistry: Fantasy is created by visuals and music as much as by story!

  • Languages: Enjoy English in-game text and original Japanese in-game voices.

Pretty art in a solid tile based dungeon crawler

Quelscar
Verified purchase
So far it has proven to be a competent tile based dungeon crawler with RPG battles , there are strange art style variants for the characters which can be a little jarring when compared with the beautiful monster arts.

It's a great game if you enjoy dungeon crawlers. Expect some tough fights as the enemies are varied and the levels that they will have when you encounter them varies and running is always an option. I'm not too far into the game but the story is nonsensical enough that they give you a reason to enter some dungeons and it seems that you can pick which of three factions to support and get power ups for your party, I'm hoping that this means that the game story has different endings or branches, but so far it's a real blast.

Stranger of Sword City Review

Sam Jones
Staff Review
Perhaps what keeps people coming back to Stranger of Sword City is the cool art style that is featured. Or maybe it's the challenging, but rewarding, dungeons that are so addictive. Whatever it is that has made it such a cult classic with JRPG fans, the game overall is brilliant.
