Or Die Trying...

Every story needs an end, and in Half Sword, it often means losing your head - quite literally. As this is a simulation game, death is final…

Be Warned: Half Sword is an extremely violent and gory game. I mean… we do have a Chief Blood Officer. Witness skull-crushing blows, limb decapitations, and gruesome displays of entrails and bloodshed, all intricately tied to the weapon and armor choices of both you and your opponents.
