The single-player experience allows for several enemies to take you on. Slowly, learn to become the ultimate swordsman as you fight to the death in combat revolving around the counter, parry, and slash. Once you done thrashing the AI, try your luck online with other players who await to test their skill.

This game does not tie fighting style to any particular character but does emphasize weapon styles. Choose from a wide cast and customize their weapons to fit your needs.

This game includes several game modes including practice, tournament, and ranked mode. These game modes provide varying content with different expected levels of skill.

The art style of this unique title is a genre known as Samuraipunk. It is a mix between techpunk and Japanese aesthetics creating a unique blend that is sure to enchant any player in this strange world.

There are six weapons to choose from and each of them come with a unique fighting style. Players can choose any of the weapons but be warned, each one has a unique moveset and threshold. The only thing that stays consistent is that one hit is all it takes to kill an enemy player.
