How it feels

A visceral, physics-driven sword-fighting simulator where you block, slice, and dismember endless waves of enemies in slow motion.

What players say

Players describe it as a promising sword-fighting concept let down by unfinished development and simple AI. The blocking feels too easy yet inconsistent, and the enemy doesn't react to distance. Long-time players say the game has been abandoned, while others still find it a fun stress reliever for short sessions.
