How it feels

A return to arcade-style 2D fighting with crisp visuals and a strategic mid-battle ability system, rewarding both execution and adaptation.

What players say

Players say the game is fun in short bursts but feels too simple for competitive play, with a dead online mode and only 12 characters. The gougi deck system adds variety, but some reviewers wish for more arcade mode options.
