Glory Ages - Samurais 12+

This game is truly amazing. The graphics and animations are a solid 9 out 10. The only reason I give it a 9 is because it could be a tiny more realistic as far as when you defeat an enemy the way their body sort of falls or rag dolls, but overall the gameplay is a 10 out of 10. Nice simple controls, a nice way to upgrade your character. A variety of swords and characters to choose from so you never get bored of appearance, a large amount of levels that you can play and win in an organized fashion. I took the time to write this review because this game is truly special. I really hope the developers take it further and maybe release a dope story mode or add onto it by maybe adding a zombie or demon mode in the future. That would be insane! Being able to chop limbs and some more moves or different animations for the fighting would be cool, but overall, AMAZING game. I’ve recommended it to ALL MY FRIENDS!

The only way to get their stamina down is to either spam attack or kick them repeatedly. I can’t find any way to take on multiple enemies at once without fury which is annoying because I got to this point where I’m locked. Every time I attack I get hit by someone so I have to block their attack meaning the person who’s stamina I just broke gets enough time to recover. And it keeps repeating. I cant draw enemies away from the group either. I cant attack without dying to some other enemy. It would be better if there was a way to do damage immediately after parrying or make the enemies not attack as soon as you attack one of their teammates. It said there was a way to “parry” I think but it was just saying to kick as soon as they attack which I tried numerous times and it does the same thing that it does when they don’t attack. Aka, there’s no way to attack AND defend so you don’t get bodied by 4 other enemies. However I was able to lure out one enemy at a time until some mission where they just stuck together the whole time. Wish there was a way to parry and not block.

Amazing combat system for such a simple game. Graphics are also very good. I love the overall aesthetic and lighting. I do believe there should be more variety in the playable characters, it would be really cool to play as a Samurai in full armor and not just a Ronin in a straw hat. It would be a lot of work, but another idea I had would be a full skill tree, where you can unlock new moves, like a special, stronger kick that can deal damage and send enemies flying back, stunning them for a few seconds, or even the ability to do a special wide slashing move that can hit multiple enemies, or a stand-off move where you can taunt one enemy and they will come forth and fight you alone while the rest of the group waits patiently to see the outcome before going in and fighting you like normal. I really enjoy the game so far and want only for it to succeed, thanks.
