So I was a SEGA kid. I remember borrowing this game from a friend when I was a kid, but I never got past the 3rd level. I figured I'd check it out again and try to beat it. This game plays a lot like the 1st Zelda, the main differences are that you don't get as many items, and the caves are all side-scrolling, then you fight the bosses in top view, and there's about 8 of them. It's long and you collect a lot of health, and the save-system is password based. I like the feel of this game, and if you'r into Master System stuff, this game is a must-have. If I had one piece of advice to give to prospective gamers to help them beat it w/out a walkthrough, it would be that every room has a cave, and almost all of them you just have to kill a few bad guys or hit the right rock/bush/whatever w/your sword. HOWEVER, to find the 3rd boss and last boss, you have to strike an object on that screen not once but 3 times in the graveyard for the 3rd boss, and 5 TIMES for the right one of 2 rocks in front of a tree for the last boss, which you will easily identify a long time before you have to go there. A simple thing, but crucial. Otherwise, if you don't mind painstakingly searching every room it should be beatable w/out a walkthrough... probably.

This is definitely one of my must have SMS games. Its similar to Zelda but with its own unique style. It combines scenes of side scrolling with over head play modes, as well as an inventory and leveling up system, and an engaging RPG story type. A great value buy for sure.
