About Kiai Resonance
Kiai Resonance is a multiplayer samurai duel where a single misstep means death, forcing you to read your opponent's moves and dynamically adjust your blade position in a deadly game of anticipation. Its striking art style channels traditional Japanese prints while delivering visceral combat across various modes that test your warrior instincts.
The graphics are attempting to restore the simple aesthetics of traditional Japanese prints by taking some pictorial elements of its great masters, while imbuing it with violence that characterized the confrontations.
Among the available game modes are included the classic one vs. one, as well as various mini games to test our samurai skills.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Kiai Resonance is a visually striking fighting game with an appealing art style and soundtrack that features deeper combat mechanics than first appear, complemented by engaging challenge modes that teach the moveset. However, players note the game feels content-light with a barebones experience, occasional bugs including locked achievements, and compatibility issues that detract from what could otherwise be an interesting couch versus experience, with some recommending alternatives like Nidhogg 2 instead.
Unusual fighting game, meditative but still fast-paced, and violent. I'd need to wait for someone else to play with before giving a proper opinion, but the combat system is way deeper than it looks, with various types of attacks, footsies and backdash, ... And the short challenges quickly teach you to master all the move set, in addition to provide fun little puzzles or special encounters. The final boss is a welcome surprise. Just to state the obvious, the graphics are gorgeous, as well as the soundtrack. My guess is the meaning of the title is that the screams of the samurais resonate through those paintings and bring them back to life or something. It's cute that everything happens on pieces of paper, including the tutorial. And the red ink that slowly fills the screen after each death is a nice touch too. The whole game has a very "artistic" feel, while still being a proper fighting game. Anyway that's pretty much all there is. Not a lot of content, but what's there is very worth it. I recommend.5 found this helpful

A pretty decent game especially if you can find somebody to couch VS with. It does have an online mode but I have not tried it tbh and it should most likely be very empty. I would still recommend Nidhogg 1&2 over this they are a much deeper and more satisfying experience. This game works fine and is kind of fun but it feels really barebones. There are some challenges but they really don't do anything special. Get Nidhogg 2 instead if you haven't played that yet and are interested in this style of gameplay. Having a second player handy is what matters most in these types of games. Two of the achievements also seem to be bugged and won't unlock as well no matter what I try.
all sorts of bugs, controlled compatibility issues, terrible menu UI, extremely limited content. could have gotten a pass if it was a free flash game from the 2000s but as a steam product it just doesn't fly.
It's a simple game of slashy slash.
