Here are some cheats and tips for the game Sword Of Vermilion.
Sound test:
Press A + B + C on controller two at
the opening screen.
Super armor class:
Take the Old Nick armor from the cave to the east of Hastings,
but do not wear it. Return to Swaffham and find Raphael’s Stick.
Wear the armor, to raise your armor class at the cost of being
cursed. Use Raphael’s Stick to remove the curse. Your armor class
will now be lower. Remove the armor. Repeat the process of wearing
the armor, using the stick, and removing the armor until your
armor class is below zero, then very high, then below zero again.
Remove the armor to stay at an armor class of over 9000. At this
level, your character will only take one point of damage per hit
from any opponent, including Tsarkon.
Super strength:
Keep the bronze sword. Find the Dark Sword or Death Sword
and accumulate several thousand Kim. Locate a priest and equip
either of the two cursed swords. Pay the priest to remove the
curse. Your strength will be lower. Repeat the process of equipping
the sword and removing the curse until your strength is below
zero, then above 5000. Equip the bronze sword. Your strength will
remain above 2500 until your reach the next level. From that point
on, your strength will remain at 1500. Equip the bronze sword
before going up a level to avoid losing strength bonuses from
magic swords. A strength of 1500 will allow almost all opponents
to be killed with one hit.
