Item Description
The first few minutes of Dark Savior decide which game you end up playing. Bounty hunter Garian is aboard a ship hauling the monster Bilan to prison, and when the creature breaks loose, the clock starts. How quickly you reach the captain's cabin sends the story down one of several entirely different paths, and that single idea makes Climax Entertainment's 1996 adventure one of the most quietly experimental games on the Saturn.
Take more than four minutes and you enter the first Parallel; reach the cabin faster and the second or third opens up instead, each with its own events, characters and challenges. A fourth Parallel follows the third, and a fifth branches off if Bilan gets the better of Garian at the cabin. These are not small detours but full alternate storylines, which turns Dark Savior into a game built to be finished more than once. Once you know the routes exist, that opening sprint through the ship becomes a puzzle of its own on every replay.
Moment to moment, it mixes three styles. There is exploration and platforming through large polygonal environments, viewed through a camera you can adjust to peer around obstacles, and there are puzzle rooms that demand careful thinking. Then there are the fights, which shift into a separate one-on-one mode played on a 2D plane with 3D characters, and in some matches Garian can capture an opponent and call on that character in later battles. Reviewers at the time admired the scale of the environments and split on the fighting, which some found simple, but nobody accused the game of playing it safe.
Climax was the studio behind Landstalker on the Genesis, and Dark Savior was seen by many as its spiritual successor, carrying that game's spirit of exploration and puzzle-solving into full 3D. For Saturn owners who love games with secrets, branching routes and real replay value, it is the kind of ambitious oddity that makes the console's library so rewarding to dig into.
