How it feels

A deliberate, one-hit dueling sword-fighter where each calm pause builds toward a sudden lethal slash.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art and tense one-hit-kill duels, but the story mode is short at around an hour and the multiplayer is essentially dead. The combat feels decent though sometimes random against AI, and players are split on whether the story is interesting or a monotonous jogging simulator.
