Izuna 2 is the first game with some new mechanics, and as such carries both the good and the bad of the original game along with it for the ride. If you're into the sort of Roguelike experience the game presents, you'll find the gameplay mechanics to feel as good as ever, the changes to many of the expected play systems to be fresh and different, the challenge to be tolerable, and the experience to be lengthy and full of replay value.
Ninja Studio, the folks behind the cult hit rogue-like series Izuna, may have quietly faced closure.
Izuna 2, Borderlands, Mass Effect 2, and several versions of Pokemon are available on the cheap this week.
Gaming Target: "Our favorite bubble headed ninja returns being employed by Success and Atlus to entertain us rogue-like fans once more in this sequel to last year's comical, yet totally enraging dungeon crawler, Izuna: The Legend of the Unemployed Ninja. If you've read our preview of this game then you pretty much know what to expect. I mean hey, that was the finished product, only now we know how well the story holds up and we can officially put a score on it."
