How it feels

A lightning-fast duel where every encounter is a tense, single-stroke battle decided in seconds.

What players say

Players love the one-hit-kill concept and music, but are split on the game. Many praise its simple fun for local play, while others criticize broken controller support, no online multiplayer, and a DLC that unbalances the game. The developer has stated they will not fix the two-player mode.
