Pegasus Seiya
The determined Pegasus Saint and the central playable hero.
How it plays
The game alternates between side-scrolling action sequences and menu-driven encounters. Players guide the Bronze Saints through story stages, fight enemy soldiers and named opponents, and use Cosmo-based abilities during battles.
Progression follows the narrative through successive locations and confrontations. Character selection and resource management are important, while attacks, defenses, and special techniques must be chosen according to the situation. The Perfect Edition reworks the earlier game's content rather than functioning as a separate competitive mode.
Plan your run
Learn which attacks are effective against each opponent instead of repeatedly using the strongest technique. Preserve resources for major battles and use defensive options when an enemy's attack pattern becomes predictable.
Advance through every available story event and check character status before difficult encounters. Rotating among the Bronze Saints can help match each fighter's strengths to the situation.

The Japanese text is important for following story instructions.
Saint Seiya: Ougon Densetsu Hen - Perfect Edition is a Japanese action role-playing game developed and published by Bandai for the WonderSwan Color. It revisits the story and mechanics of the earlier Saint Seiya: Ougon Densetsu Hen, following the Bronze Saints as they defend Athena and confront powerful opponents from the series. The game combines side-scrolling combat, menu-based commands, exploration, and stat management rather than presenting a conventional arcade brawler. Its main appeal is the use of recognizable characters, attacks, and story scenes in a portable format. Reception is chiefly associated with its status as a more complete and refined remake for Saint Seiya fans, although its Japanese-only presentation limits accessibility for players unfamiliar with the source material.
