Ninja Avenger Dragon Blade

I'm not sure what game the other reviews are talking about, I'm not seeing it. It is a fun game, but I have yet to see a "combo" of any sort nor have i encountered a challenge. Before I even got to the third area I was able to afford a sword that can kill everything from a distance. It is a lot of fun, still, but then I get stuck in the environment. When I reload my game, I am in a different area (I knew this would happen and was not worried) but then I was stuck by a story-lock and unable to progress in the game. I've only played the game an hour so far, but it was not so fun that I would want to replay that hour.

Nice and quite simple indie game with decent visuals. I haven't play it for too long but so far i like it! I'll update my review if i'll encounter any game errors, bugs, etc...

This seemed like it had potential, but I found it to be ridiculously clunky and not fun as a result. There's no controller support but the mouse/keyboard controls are awkward where the mouse only pans the camera which always stays at the same distance so buildings/objects keep blocking your view of the characters. The collision detection for the player seems choppy too since many objects seem to have some leeway on their boundaries. The combat feels unresponsive to me from time to time where it feels like my character has issues striking correctly/timely. And then the enemies seem too dumb, at least from the few minutes I played, as shooting them from a particular distance meant they'd just stop trying to attack me and let me kill them without objections. Maybe this just wasn't for me.

Damn...I really wanted to like the game since I'm a ninja fanatic. Tenchu till death. Anyway. This game is frustrating. I'm playing around ability to finish quests. It seems like I'll finish what I need to do, but the quest giver will say it isn't done. I remember killing an axe guy before the quest was given, but then a reload allowed me to kill him again to continue. After the horse-wolves section, I killed every bandit in the village but the quest wouldn't continue. A reload didn't fix it.

The game might be interesting if they introduce mouselook inversion, and controller support, or even the ability to edit key bindings. Even with those additions, the player controls lack response. Games where part of their challenge lies with the interface are handicapping their own appeal.
