Play Sword of Vermilion (USA, Europe) Online
You play a prince hunting revenge, switching between top-down towns and first-person dungeons where monsters ambush you—clunky but oddly charming with that classic Genesis synth soundtrack.

Sword of Vermilion is one of those old-school Sega Genesis RPGs that feels ambitious but also a little rough around the edges—classic Yu Suzuki. You play as a prince out for revenge, wandering through first-person dungeons and top-down towns, swinging your sword at monsters that pop up out of nowhere. The combat’s simple but satisfying, though the dungeons can drag if you’re not in the mood for slow, grid-based exploring.
Fun fact: The box bragged about "300 hours of gameplay," which… yeah, maybe if you got lost in every single cave. The music’s got that moody Genesis synth vibe, and the story’s straightforward but decent for its time. It’s not the deepest RPG out there, but there’s charm in its clunkiness. You can still find it in the Sega Genesis Collection or the Wii’s Virtual Console if you’re feeling nostalgic.
