Swords of Destiny is a fairly obscure Hack and Slash game developed by Artoon in 2006, and set into a mythic ancient China.Long ago, evil demons known as Gyakki invaded the human world led by their empress Yang Yuan. However, a legendary warrior called Yan De, wielding the Three Swords of Yi and helped by his daughter's spiritual powers vanquished her and her minions. However, fearing her return, he built a dojo in order to choose a rightful successor. Said successor, Lei Yun, is entrusted with the Awakening Sword, and sent on a journey to train. Sadly, he comes back just in time to see Yang's return as she and her slaves attacks Yan De's dojo and kidnap his daughter, Xiao, at the same time releasing the spirit of the evil Meng Wei. With Yan De dead, is up to Lei Yun to find all the Swords of Yi, save Xiao and stop the Gyakki once again.Alas, the game seems to suffer a rather obvious case of "Blind Idiot" Translation, along with a rather bad voice acting and some frustrating mechanics in certain portions of the game.

comment
The Worf Effect: In a cutscene, Yan De and Xiao manage to wipe out several demons without effort. Then Yang Yuan arrives, knocks Yan De out with a shockwave and dominates Xiao... by simply grabbing her. That's right, being grabbed by a half-naked demoness will make your demon-repelling skills useless.

Stock Wushu Weapons: All the fighters employ classical martial arts, and the hero is a Master Swordsman using a jian, a large dao and a even larger jian, as well as a two-bladed jian with a staff-like moveset. Yang Yuan wields a yue poleaxe, while the mooks have a galore of weapons, including dao and jian of all sizes, qiang an jian clubs.

Bullet Time: Or rather, Sword Time: when you lock on an enemy, a green circle will appear. Hitting enemies when the circle turns red will initiate the Sword Time, with Lei becoming able to land a few really damaging hits on the nearby foes... though sometimes is hard to use.
