First Cut: Samurai Duel Reviews

Peak beyond peak. The combat is almost like For Honor but 2d. Its a great game and 100% worth my money.

Completely flawed gameplay based on chance and AI knowing exactly what you're going to do. There's no feinting, you hit the other persons sword until they let you win.

Why on a dual stick controller setup would you map both directional sticks to aiming. Why wouldn't you simply make left stick move and right stick aim? Specially on a 2-D plane..?

From someone who is getting bored of the typical game where you have to hit your enemy many times with a sharp sword. This is a very good skill based combat system with a full campaign , duels and survival game modes . Buy it!

first look at the game the pixel art at the main menu sucks it feel weird the game mods is complected i think because the main menu colors and the font which make it hard to read which it was some brighter colors the game play is fun but wished there was a story mod or something despite its getting famous they can at least put online game mod with rank or something like that not so happy with the money i spent on it or not soo sad but i putted a great expectations on it ( sorry for the spelling :) ) will not recommend it until they add new things make it worth buying

good 2d combat game - combat is easy to learn - campaign missions are hard and take quite some time to beat - a challenging game - lots of customization (player customization and gamemode customization) - the only thing i would say REALLY NEEDS an upgrade is the multiplayer/co-op (whatever you want to call it). - if you have no friends theres an ai teammate you can have on survival mode (keep in mind im saying this with 3 hours of playtime, i might just be bad so dont trust the challenging game part)

Very fun and challenging game. I did have it before but only for 11 minutes then got mad and gave it a refund but decided to come back and check it out. Worth the price its very fun. Going to try and get some friends to buy it so we can duel. If they add mods then its a 10 but for now its a 9. Very good game

Very smooth gameplay and satisfying sounds and very good graphics

Simple but difficult combat, any skill level player can have fun with this. Something you could go pretty deep in and become a samurai master. For the price especially this is a great pick

my only gripe so far is that the player shouldnt be slower overall than a majority of the npcs. The players draw speed and overhead strikes are much slower than the ai leaving you feeling on the constant defense when they get into certain patterns and also depend on a degree of luck
