How it feels

A precise, tactical sword-fighting game that feels like a dueling dance of timing and strategy.

What players say

Players praise the deep, technical dueling system with stances and high skill ceiling, but the community is tiny and matchmaking is dead. Single-player is absent, and reviews split on whether the game was better a decade ago. Long-time players remember it fondly, while newcomers struggle with the steep learning curve and empty lobbies.
