    Samurai: Way of the    The long-awaited sequel to Samurai: Way of the Warrior has finally arrived on iPhone and iPad! While the original got rave reviews for its stylized manga graphics and quick, bloody gameplay, Samurai II delivers even more action and an intuitive new control scheme.

    Samurai: Way of the Warrior was featured in Best Games of 2009 by Apple – Samurai II is a true successor, aided by over a year of focused development. Overall production values and vicious action put Samurai II on par with console 3D brawlers. Screenshots don’t do Samurai II justice – the fluid action has to be seen running at 60 frames per second on the Retina display or popping off the iPad screen.

    But looks alone won’t carry a game – the developers listened to fan feedback and improved gameplay throughout. With a new virtual d-pad, dynamic camera, environmental puzzles, traps, and vicious new enemies, Samurai II is brand new experience for hack ‘n’ slash gamers on the go.

    Samurai II sends Daisuke on a quest for revenge across the war-scorched countryside. From a seafaring village to a flying fortress to the legendary Isle of the Dead, the samurai will stop at nothing to hunt down his arch-enemy Orochi. Will he get his Vengeance?

    FEATURES:

    ? Universal app - supports iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod Touch 3G, and iPad. The game is optimized to take advantage of each device's strengths.

    ? Intuitive virtual joystick ensures you’re slicing up baddies, not swiping the screen.

    ? Dynamic camera finds the best perspective for each encounter, adding variety while keeping focused on the action.

    ? Tense, quick and gory battle sequences!
    - Battle hordes of on-screen enemies wielding new weapons and sporting unique abilities.
    - Stay nimble and plan your attacks – roll out of harm’s way and eliminate ranged enemies like the Samurai Archer before they can strike.
    ? Improved gameplay includes new features.
    - Solve environmental puzzles, avoid dangerous traps, and discover useful items.
    - The fight is on - not to worry, the combat never takes a back seat to platforming or fetch-quests.

    ? RPG elements reward skilled players – upgrade the Samurai’s health, buy new attack combos and upgrade them to devastating levels.

    ? Between levels, gorgeous anime-style comic panels tell the samurai’s tale with original hand-drawn artwork.

    ? New survival mode pits the samurai against waves of enemies, giving hardcore players a score-attack mode to hone their skills. Two games in one!

    ? Runs at 60 frames per second on iPhone 4G, iPod 4G and iPad.

    ? Advanced AI system on par with console games. Goal Oriented Action Planning architecture is used in many PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 games.

    ? Samurai II is developed on the Unity 3D 3.0 engine, the latest technology available on mobile devices.

    ? Apple Game Center support, including Leaderboards and Achievements.

    ? Original soundtrack – in classic samurai movie style, soft music builds with the heat of battle.

    Samurai II: Vengeance may have lost its unique touch controls, but its solid gameplay and amazing artistic style are almost second to none.

    Samurai 2: Vengeance has improved by leaps and bounds over the original, and has evolved into an extremely satisfying action hack and slash game.

    Overall, Samurai 2 Vengence is a very solid game that shows the potential of the kinds of games the iDevices can handle despite lacking the processing power of a PC or modern console.

    Samurai II will test your skill, smarts, and patience, but you should have a lot of fun along the way.

    Samurai II: Vengeance is a sharp, stylish action game that could use more diverse level design, but is undeniably entertaining.

    Samurai II: Vengeance visuals may impress, but the gameplay is roundly unimpressive.

    Despite their distinctive art style, Madfinger makes amateur mistakes with Samurai II that show they're not quite ready for the jump from mobile to the big leagues.

Ne yazıkki eski olduğundan kaynaklı kendini çok tekrar eden bir oyun. Oyundaki mekanlar kendini çok tekrar eden cinsten. Ara sahneler çizgi roman tarzında yapılmış. Bunların dışında her nekadar oyun size skillerini geliştirme imkanı sunsada bu da çok kısıtlı.Yinede toplam 7 bölümden oluşan bu oyunu bitirdim. Güzel miydi?Güzeldi...Ama daha güzel olsaydı keşke... Aradan 4-5 yıl geçtiği halde devamı gelmemiş olsada umarım ilerde gelir...… Expand
