Play Skyblazer (USA) Online Free

Skyblazer is a side-scrolling action game developed by Ukiyotei and published by Sony Imagesoft for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) in early 1994. Players control protagonist Sky (Garuda in the Japanese version) on a quest to rescue the sorceress Ariana (Vishnu in the Japanese version), who has been abducted by the war god Ashura. The game features 17 levels across diverse environments and challenges, culminating in a final battle against the ultimate boss Raglan (Ravana in the Japanese version). It uses a non-linear map design that lets players choose their level order and revisit completed stages to collect missed magic skills and items. Beyond basic punches and kicks, Sky can wield eight special attacks that consume magic power. The game boasts impressive graphics and sound, making full use of the SNES’s Mode 7 technology for visual effects like rotation and scaling. It received positive reviews upon release; GamePro called it "a great mix of side-scrolling action, puzzles, special abilities, and strategy," praising its high difficulty, mythological setting, simple controls, and innovative Mode 7 implementation.
