About
A lone samurai, consumed by grief and vengeance, walks the path of blood. His wife—murdered. His daughter—taken. With nothing left but his blade and a burning will to strike down injustice, he races through the shadows of feudal Japan, hunting those who shattered his world. Each duel is a test of speed, precision, and nerve. There are no second chances. Only the clash of steel and the silence that follows.

Yo if you like those games where you press the arrow keys, like old school Dance Dance, this game is legit, hard and fun. See you on the leaderboards
Samurai strategem is a gem - a classic homage to 80's samurai and ninja movies with a indy B rate twist. combine that with a cut throat DDR style gameplay will be a subtle test to your inferiority to being a modern gamer, if your reflexes are not upto par, you will find yourself in the beyond. This game makes me feel old but I love it.
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
Extremely boring and monotonous, so much that I feel irritation rising from deep within. I cleared (if it can be even called that) it twice in 30 min, and don't ever want to launch it again. The graphics are too much static, and this...EGA-stylised..? retro style frankly makes my eyes bleed. There is a point where enough is enough. The animations are nonexistent, and actually don't really matter, since you wouldn't have too much time looking at them. I've had MUCH more fun playing One Finger Death Punch than this one...
Use WASD or the arrow keys to input the correct movies to deal damage. My one complaint is that I have no idea how to tell how much HP is left for the enemy. Overall, pretty fun game for $3.
Awesome little game! If you like One Finger Death Punch and want something a little harder you'll love this game. It has a cool soundtrack and feels like the old school arcade games we used to love. It's got a compelling backstory which I'd be interested to see continue as you play through the game and fight each boss. Only feature or change I might suggest is the ability to skip the intro cutscene so you can get back to the action after you die to try again!
