| Game Analysis | The player begins the game with a standard katana sword, and can also obtain long range weapons with limited supply. However, as the player progresses, Samanosuke can gain three elemental weapons: Raizan, Enyuu and Shippuu, each with an elemental magic attack. As enemies are defeated, they release different coloured souls that are absorbed by using the demon gauntlet on Samanosuke's wrist: red souls act as "currency" which can be used to upgrade weaponry, yellow souls recover health, while blue souls recover magic power which is used to perform each weapon's elemental abilities. | |

Game intro
comments
While the production of this game was STELLAR for the time that it came out, and pretty much today as well, the story and characters in it left something to be desired. The voice acting was… bad, just bad, and the overall understanding of just what the hell is going on is totally ambiguous for the most part. The one saving grace is that it’s short, relatively easy (though can be frustratingly cheap at times), and moves briskly through it’s mostly shallow narrative. Fun to play though, and has really cool systems of upgrading weapons that I wish more games implemented. Decent in the end.
