Samurai Stratagem

This is the most primitive test for chimpanzees and monkeys [spoiler](and considering that some kind of "phonk music" is playing in the game, it is definitely conceived for apes)[/spoiler] - stare at one spot for minutes and press in the correct sequence the buttons corresponding with the colours shown. But at least chimpanzees get bananas for their participation. Here not only you don't get a banana, but you also have to pay - WTF. [b] Developer - animal abuser. [/b] I think the game still has room for improvement. We can start by removing every single thing, including the main menu, and leaving just the stream of coloured arrows. Preferably occupying the entirety of the screen - for better understanding of the dystopian reality.

Fun game with a leaderboard made by a really cool indie dev.

I made the game this review for steam algo

if you beat my score in Fury mode then you're gay seriously please don't do it this is all i have

The game just released, so I dont have a lot of time with this particular build. Most of my time was in development build as a tester, so I HAVE played this game more then it looks like! LOL! So despite my low play time here, I have played it extensively. And I think the challenge is very good. Dev, don't change the difficulty. It's brutally hard, at least for me, and for that I want to come back and give it a shot later on today. It really does feel like an old school arcade game in it's great difficulty. But in a GOOD way! Like, it gives me the feeling of playing like a ARCADE classic game like Ghosts N Goblins does, that kinda tough and challenging. I don't know if you ever played Ghosts n Goblins, but this is a VERY BIG compliment. That game is my favorite game of all time. It was DARK SOULS before Dark Souls came out, but 2D. Tough, every moment is engaging, you dont make it far because you die and run out of lives. BUT. the reset is forgiving and short time to get back to where you were because its not an incredibly long game, so you want to play it again and again. Very addicting for this reason. Because now you can use the skills you learned on the way to get to that point again but this time make it even further and that's the fun of it all. Okay, look, I SUCK at these types of games, I am the WORST. So I had a extra challenge facing me going in, I thought i was never gunna get past that second boss, but I eventually did and it was very satisfying. The game also has hand made art. Did I mention that? That kinda ♥♥♥♥ is tough. No premade assets from itchio. Hand drawn, baby! You can tell the dev put a lot of love into it. --- It shows. Definitely. The story is also, generic revenge story if I ever heard one. But who doesn't like a good fun and generic revenge tale? Kill Bill anyone? It gives you reason enough to start the game, at least. And the tough gameplay, keeps you addicted long enough to make satisfying progress. Like I said, didn't make it all that far. I seen the development of the game, and I seen the amount of bosses. Not even a quarter of the way through. BUT, but. I definitely want to come back and see if I can beat it. It's not a super long game, I know i have the capability. I just need to summon up all my chakra, and finger blast the keyboard, like samarai to do it. I have to become the samarai. I have to avenge my children! THIS IS PERSONAL! AAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!

slow burn, atmospheric, no jump scares, absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ behavior dude

addicting

Good little game that tests your reflexes and has a cool art style. I just wish it had controller support as when you get to the last boss your fingers start twitching at the keys and makes you mess up. Or I just might be becoming a old fart

Very cool game overall. I was able to watch some of the development of this game on youtube which was nice to see. - The pixel art and character designs are really fun. They remind somewhat of Tenchu bosses. - The background music is fitting and helps to keep things interesting and perfectly fits the tension of the gameplay being timed challenges. - The gameplay is varied with the different obstacles: held swing, feints and double-swings. These are introduced in different combinations on the different stages, which makes each character feel different. Overall it's a fun game and definitely worth the price

This game is a simple and fun. but frustrating, maybe because i'm bad at it lol It is challenging and fast. i still can't beat it :D It's not as easy as it looks i swear! lol
