Are 8-bit games only remembered for their difficulty?
Oniken is a single-player, violence fighting game with an intriguing story, excellent gameplay, compelling visuals, and perfect music, inspired by 1980's games and movies. As the lone ninja mercenary Zaku, players join the rebellion against the evil Oniken military organization, oppressing the few remaining post-war survivors. Every copy includes a digital game manual and soundtrack, but expect tough challenges, as death will come frequently.

Oniken: Unstoppable Edition (Switch) Review

60%Oniken: Unstoppable Edition Review
Oniken has plenty of passion put into the game. The 80's action film styling are cool but the game design itself is sadly stuck in a time where gaming was still feeling itself out. There is fun to be had if you can stomach the rote memorization required.
