Play Kenseiden (Japan) Online
In Kenseiden, you control a young samurai, battling through areas, defeating warlords, and using magical scrolls for spells while mastering precise jumps and enemy patterns.
Kenseiden came out for the Sega Master System in 1988, developed and published by Sega. It was one of the system's action titles that leaned into a darker, more methodical style of play compared to some of the faster platformers available at the time.
You control a young samurai on a quest to defeat six warlords. Movement is screen by screen; you clear each area of enemies before proceeding. Your main weapon is a sword, and you can find magical scrolls that grant temporary spells like fire or lightning. The pacing is deliberate, and the difficulty is considerable, with precise jumps and enemy patterns to learn. It feels like a thoughtful, sometimes punishing test of timing and patience.
