It features hack-n-slash combat against the fabled Gokais and several puzzles to resolve along the forest. Exploring the land yields dragon gems to change your stats, cursed seals that heavily modify stats, and, as you progress with the story, more ninja powers. A local co-op mode is also available. [hr][h3][b][u]Story[/u][/b][/h3][/hr] A thousand years ago, a dragon razed the land with his fire, consuming almost all the life in the prosperous, peaceful land. Five monks defeated and captured the dragon in a cage made out of pure Ki energy. But the dragon broke free one day. A weaponsmith managed to create a powerful sword that they said cut through rock like it was paper and trusted the blade to a legendary champion. The blade thrust into the dragon with ease, releasing dark energy that killed its wielder, but it got stuck in the belly of th…

[b] Katana Dragon [/b] is an action, adventure and dungeon exploration RPG with hack and slash combat and puzzle elements. It is presented very nicely with an oriental atmosphere enhanced by a great oriental soundtrack and visually pleasing voxel graphics. The elephant in the room is that this is only Part One of the series and I could not find out for sure what the business model is for part two. It could be a paid DLC or it could be free to owners of part one. It would be nice to know because it is difficult to form an opinion on the game without this information so I would kindly invite the devs to comment with their future plans for this title :) I've played enough of the game to get a good feel of the mechanics and it is an enjoyable game to play with some mildly challenging combat and puzzle elements.

Such a cute game, really well made! Firstly, the graphics are phenomenal! Amazing job, the game feels well put together and has great controls. The combat is pretty basic, and the puzzles are quite easy, but this is still amazing, I hope this can get more attention. Bravo!

Really Fun game. Relax and Chill -> Vibez. Really nice pixelart!

A delightful voxel action RPG with charming visuals, satisfying puzzles, and engaging dungeons. The lack of achievements and sudden "end of chapter" without warning are frustrating. Still, a promising start for an otherwise fun adventure.

Pros: Unique art style and cute characters. Cons: A lot of bugs for a game that is not in early access. The characters noises are also get really annoying after a while. If it's on for $5, why not. Any more, then no.
