Sword Master is a 1990 side-scrolling action game developed by Athena and published by Activision for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

It was first released in Japan in 1990, North America in 1992, and PAL regions in 1993.

The game follows the knight as he marches through forest, village, and all around the enemy's castle, until both the wizard and the demon are destroyed.

The player encounters giant bats, wolves, skeleton warriors, evil knights, wizards, barbarians, lizard men, gargoyles, and other fierce enemies on his quest.

For example, the Sword Master can transform into a mage and cast offensive magic spells.
