Jogo legal, jogo formoso! Bem simples e curtinho, e seu preço faz valer o que ele entrega. Afinal estamos falando de um jogo para apertar botões no tempo certo, com uma gestão mínima de priorizar qual alvo acertar primeiro, e o jogo é basicamente isso. Mas é nessa simplicidade que ele pode te levar a algumas boas horas de diversão/sofrimento/frustração/raiva/ódio... até chegar no estágio de descobrir que não tem habilidade suficiente para apertar botões. :P Ótimo para aquela pausa de 10 min, e principalmente para quem gosta de ficar se desafiando ou desafiando algum amigo para ver quem chega mais longe. https://youtu.be/6hBWd9BtSQU
Samuray ve Lovecraft temasının bir araya gelişi... Cennet... Bayram ziyaretinde rabbimin bile s.ktir ettiği yerde internetsiz kaldığım için oynamaya başladım. Oldukça hızlı süren ve sonsuza kadar giden bir 2D oyun. Ben kolla oynamayı tercih ettim. Sağ ve sol taraftan gelen düşmanları o yöne dönmek için ayrı bir tuşa tıklamadan sağa ve sola yönelik üst, orta ve alttan saldırı tuşları ile kolayca dövebiliyoruz. Size zaten bir düşmana üstten, ortadan ya da alttan mı vurmanız gerektiğini gösteriyor ancak bunları takip etmek dikkat dağıtıcı. O yüzden düşmanın neresine vurmanız gerektiğini gösteren ibarelere dikkat etmek gerek. Kolunda/omzunda kırmızı kabarcık olana ve sarı sineklere üst, karnında kırmızı kabarcık olanlara ve kırmızı sineklere orta, sürüngenlere ve bacağında kırmızı kabarcık olanlara alttan vuruyoruz. Seviye ilerledikçe yaratıklar da zorlaşıyor ve vurmanız gereken yerler birken ikiye çıkıyor. 3 hakkımız var ve vuruşu yanlış atarsanız saldırıyorlar ve bir canınız gidiyor. İlk başta yapacağınız oyuna tüm uzuvlarımla dalayım diye oynarken sonradan baya sardı. Keyifli bir oyun. Üstelik başarım yağdırıyor ve başarım adları da çok güzel. Daha fazla düşman, farklı oyun modu ve düşman kestikçe altın kazanıp bunlarla alabileceğimiz kostüm seçenekleri getirilse çok güzel olur.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

In Musashi vs Cthulhu you embody Musashi, a cursed samurai battling relentless waves of eldritch monsters. The gameplay is straightforward: enemies approach from both sides and you must strike their weak points, head, torso, or legs, using corresponding buttons. The challenge escalates as enemies become more varied and aggressive testing your reflexes and precision. It's a game that doesn't overcomplicate things, offering a pure test of skill and focus. Ideal for short, intense sessions where quick reactions are key or just for longplays if you are really going for it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8uF2JVLjJk
If you are searching for a beat'em up or a souls like, this game is NOT like that. This one is press the button on the right time (like Guitar Hero and lookalikes). That been said, it's a great surprise to play it! The controllers answer pretty well, graphics are nice, hand drawn and matching the atmosphere. Monsters are very well designed, worthy of the Lovecrafian world (just the insects that made me confused haha). O.S.T. is ok, I just listened two songs, one of the main menu and one of the game itself. Well, I think that's pretty much it. I'll give it a 7 plus one tentacle. A whole 8 for this! Game on players!
Musashi vs Cthulhu — это неплохой кликер, чтобы позалипать полчаса или часок, но стоит брать только по скидке и если вы любите игры, которые убивают время. Сюжета тут нет, особо продуманного геймплея тоже. По сути, вы стоите на месте и на вас нападают враги, у которых есть слабые точки. Вы должны бить по ним, выбрав правильное направление на стрелочках или стике геймпада. Музыка приятна на слух, графический стиль не блещет, но и не вызывает раздражения. Есть таблица лидеров и различные достижения для любителей соревноваться и добиваться рекордов. В целом, если взять на распродаже и вы любите простенькие игры с понятным геймплеем, который проверяет вашу внимательность и реакцию, то позалипать в Musashi vs Cthulhu можно. Но если вы ищете чего-то большего, игра вам этого не предоставит.
This was WAY more fun than I thought it would be based on appearances. The controls are very responsive and feel like a lot of fun. Devs, if youre reading this...PLEASE incorporate these controls and the left/right mechanics into a rhythm game in the future. DJ Musashi would be a ton of fun!
Action + challenging + unique = Dark Souls flashbacks. Fight the onslaught of enemies coming from both directions with precise sequences. Good luck baka. [h1][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35180752-3-point-play/] Follow our curator for similar games [/url][/h1]
Just got this game tonight and started playing it. Did not think i was going to like it when i found out that you can't move around but after 10 minutes of playing the game i must say that i like it a lot. I will definitely be playing this game a lot. I suggest that this game should change it's steam deck compatibility listing from playable to steam deck verified as it plays great on the deck. I am happy that i discovered this game. I feel like i just discovered a hidden gem of games.
猟犬の追加で急に有用なツールになった。 一切の脅威を感じずに手が勝手に対処する状態に脳を調整してから仕事に出ると全て巧く行きます。 助かる。猟犬助かる。 すっかり自信がついて、角を潰していない部屋でも熟睡できるようになりました。 ありがとう。
[url=https://youtu.be/_KGseg8e_xs?si=Pp6qfbYJQ1eUYfT0] First 20 Minutes Gameplay Here[/url] Another great example that you don't always need mega graphics and a mega studio for a good game! I mean you can't move forward or backwards, and you only have to defend yourself. And would've been nice if it was that easy right =) The monsters come from left and right and you have to defend yourself with the corresponding key sequences. That's it! As someone who's not that fast at responding to these kind of games (as you can see) I still liked it, and it will be on my replay list for some while! Thumbs Up!
