"Sometimes a game’s concept sounds too good to be true, a combination of a developer a setting and a story that sounds absolutely perfect together, so much so that you know deep down that something must not be quite right with it. Akaneiro was that for me, a combination of the wonderful developers at Spicy Horse (creators of Alice: Madness Returns), the story of Little Red Riding Hood and set in a feudal Japanese setting. It sounded fantastic." says CalmDownTom
Gi - Spicy Horse is trying to make a splash in the Action RPG genre with their new Free to Play ARPG: Akaneiro: Demon Hunters. Spicy Horse is owned by American McGee (of American McGee’s Alice fame) and he’s back to retelling classic stories. This time he’s re-imagining “Little Red Riding Hood” in Akaneiro: Demon Hunters. Does American McGee’s twisted mind have enough to bring an original ARPG to the table, or is it just as generic as the dozens of other Diablo clones?
From GamesReviews:
"Akaneiro: Demon Hunters is a game by Spicy Horse, originally released as a web browser title and now available for early purchase as a downloadable on Steam. It’s still in development, with new features on the way over the next few months, so this probably isn’t the last time we’ll take a sojourn into historic Japan.
An action-RPG of sorts, Akaneiro’s beautiful art style covers limited, repetitive gameplay that may be fun in small doses on a tablet or in a browser, but which ultimately falls long short of greatness."
