(WGB) Furi Review – Furious Concentration

Baden of WGB: "Oh, Furi, why couldn’t you have launched last week? If you had arrived earlier you would have easily made it onto my list of favorite games from the first half of 2016. Furi’s brilliance, you see, lies within its deceptive simplicity; nine bosses stand in your way, and to beat them you can slash, dodge, parry and fire a gun. Beyond that, you can charge up your slashes to stun an opponent, dodges and gun. There are no complex combos to learn, nor any upgrade system that allows access to flashier moves. New weapons are entirely absent, too. Nine fights, four moves. That’s it."

Maybe I'm getting old and my reaction time are not what they used to be but I'm really struggling to get anywhere with this game.

I'm struggling with the game too, struggling to find any enthusiasm for it that is.
I did give it a try but concept doesn't work for me. Maybe I'm missing something or maybe I just like the bits in games between the boss battles too much.

For me a boss battle is a barrier that must be overcome to earn the next part of the game. I see them as the fullstop (period) at the end of a paragraph, a purposeful punctuation to the action of the main game.

I quite like this game, probably the best "straight to plus" game since Rocket League.
