Kujaku Ou 2: Geneijou/Mystic Defender
System(s): Sega Mega Drive
Publisher: Sega
Developer:
Genre: Action

















Release Date RRP Code

Kujaku Ou 2: Geneijou (孔雀王2 幻影城) is the sequel to Kujaku Ou, developed and published by Sega in 1989 for the Sega Mega Drive. Just as Kujaku Ou was released overseas as SpellCaster, Kujaku Ou 2 was released overseas as Mystic Defender. In Korea it was named On Dal Jang Goon and some character graphics were changed.

Mystic Defender is probably one of the most interesting games for those who use a English/Japanese switch on their Mega Drive. Not only is the text swapped, but also the intro, and the main character becomes a girl instead of a boy in the Japanese version.

Mystic Defender storyline

Zareth, the henchman of the evil king Zao, kidnaps the Supreme Deity's daughter to use her power to resurrect Zao. You are Joe Yamato, a magician and warrior who goes out to save her and stop Zareth.

Gameplay

C jumps. By default, B fires a magic ball; hold down to charge a ball. Throughout the course of the game, you collect new spells — A changes spells and B uses them, complete with charging ability.
