Our only goal is to find our way back home. The problem is that the citizens of Escario claim that our protagonist is the chosen one who will save them from the forces of darkness. In terms of mechanics, Stranger of the Sword City is a typical jRPG. We explore the world, complete various quests, and fight with various enemies and bosses in turn-based battles.
