Summary edit
Being a non-linear role-playing game, the quests can be done in any order although some of them have prerequisites. Most are completely optional, but change the ending. The quests can be abandoned and returned at will.
The game features a time system and the characters are actually aging, though their statistics stay the same. This system is also used for money loans, as you will receive penalties when you don't pay back before the end of the year.
Reception edit
Soul & Sword received reviews of 8/10, 6/10, 7/10 and 7/10 in the December 3, 1993 issue of Famitsu. Famitsu reviewers praised the non-linear structure of the game but found the combat system to be conventional.
