    Sumioni: Demon Arts is one of those hidden gems of the Playstation Vita that the market analysts radar unfortunately make it increasingly difficult to locate.

    With a bit of sprucing up here and there, Sumioni: Demon Arts could be a keeper. In its current form, there's still plenty to enjoy.
  3. Sadly, the frantic combat is never as graceful as it should be. [Apr 2013, p.117]

    Stylish visuals can't save this from being a repetitive and uninspiring experience. [May 2013, p.81]

  1. It is hard to write a review for such not an ordinary game. On the one hand, it is fun: dynamic, cool japanesse style, a lot of missions, moves, magic (ink arts, in our case), but on other hand, there are disadvantages: too hard bosses, hwo need a lot of time to defeat; endings, that need you to start the game over and over to replay the same missions, and so on. But at all, i must say, thatbthis game is cool and imteresting. Expand
