The land is soaked in the blood of your people, and the seven samurai in your party are Yamato's only hope. Use magic, weaponry, and wits to destroy Zanshin - before his darkness becomes complete.

    A terrific title; it is entertainment-rich, and one of those games that makes a mockery of time because it will fly when you play.

    Though it has few real role-playing elements to speak of and though some aspects of its gameplay aren't well implemented, ToD does succeed in offering plenty of good-looking combat sequences, which are repetitive but interesting nevertheless.

    Imagine a murky graphics engine that blurs as it moves, is way too dark and missing a gamma setting, and gets frequently swallowed up by flashy spell effects.

    Intriguing spells, good concept and graphics but could use some tweaking in recovering health and Ki of characters. There is too much idle time waiting for them to heal. Should add some way to sell off unneeded items to help build gold reserves faster. … Expand
