Today D3 Publisher released a new trailer of its upcoming “Girls Sword-fighting Action” game Samurai Maiden.
WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "When all is said and done, Samurai Maiden can be consumed in three doses: gentle sips, hearty swallows, or drowning in mayhem. You might only do a stage and then get tired of the repetition and need a break. You might be able to progress through the story as it unfolds, unlocking elements as needed and getting stronger. Or you can obsessively grind each level as you move forward, getting more and more Inga to elevate the side characters and unlock new outfits, because of course that happens in this game.
Players ready for the second or third choices need little else to bring them into the experience. However, if you want to piecemeal Samurai Maiden, you’ll lose steam quickly and get distracted by long dialogues between fights and stages. Personally, I went right down the middle, and I think that’s the best course for everyone. It’s fun, it’s funny, and it keeps me coming back for more, and that’s all I want in a game."
Samurai Maiden is a fun but also flawed hack'n slash that embraces all the beloved anime tropes.
“I thoroughly enjoyed SAMURAI MAIDEN's combat with its wealth of skills and charming cast of lovely ladies. However, it does have its issues, especially if you want to take photos of the characters' panties because you'll end up incredibly disappointed. 📸” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
