The gameplay is highly praised for its expressiveness and smooth mechanics, allowing players to finesse their attacks and defenses effectively. While the game is incredibly fun, especially in multiplayer, some users note that it requires a friend to fully enjoy the experience. Overall, it receives strong positive feedback, despite some criticism of the music.
“And yet, due to how much a player can finesse their attack and defensive maneuvers with their swords, as simple as it is, it's extremely expressive gameplay-wise!”
“Amazing gameplay 10/10”
“I love this game! It is incredibly fun playing with your friends. I bought it as soon as it came out because it looked cool and unique. It does kind of suck that you have to have a friend to play, but the gameplay is smooth and fun.”
