Action RPG set during Japan's Warring States period. You play William, a Western swordsman fighting through demon-infested battlefields. Combat centers on stance-switching swordsmanship—high, mid, and low stances change your moveset and stamina costs. You'll fight Yokai (supernatural creatures from Japanese folklore) and human samurai, both requiring different tactical approaches. The game uses a stamina system called Ki that punishes button-mashing and rewards timing. Missions take you through war-torn provinces, each with environmental hazards and ambush points. Loot drops constantly, letting you min-max gear stats between fights. Boss encounters demand pattern recognition and stamina management. Death means losing accumulated currency unless you recover it from your corpse. Steep difficulty curve—expect to replay sections while learning enemy tells. Best for players who enjoy technical melee combat and don't mind repeated failures during the learning process.
