Sclash

Slash is a simple samurai fighting game capable of defeating opponents with a single blow. The battles are tense and exciting, but the disappointing single-player options are synonymous with a lack of depth. Visually pleasing, thanks to the brush drawing style graphics.

Sclash tries to build on Bushido Blade success and ideas and, despite an intriguing art direction and some well-crafted mechanics, it still has a lot of room for improvement.

The vast empty side-scrolling world should have sent me to sleep. However, the bizarre imagery and stunning landscapes were fascinating. Alongside this, I adored the audio and the simple mechanics. Yes, I’d have liked it to be harder, but this wasn’t to be. As such, despite my minor complaints, I adore Sclash and recommend buying it here! Can you bridge the feud? Explore the world, tackle each foe, and uncover the truth.

Sclash is a simple fighting game featuring samurai that can beat their opponents with just one hit. Battles are tense and exciting as a result, but disappointing single-player options and a lack of overall depth let it down somewhat.

If you find very limited one-hit fighting games interesting this delivers, but it’s tough to stay interested in it

Sclash is an absolutely beautiful looking game with a stunning look that makes everything appear hand-painted. The story is quite short, and currently, there is no online play available, but it is still a game that will test your patience and timing!

Despite some nagging issues, Sclash mostly succeeds in delivering a streamlined yet challenging combat experience that any fighting game purist will enjoy, and any newbie can too, without much hassle. So if fast-paced, strategic, samurai swordfights are your cup of tea, don’t hesitate to pick up Sclash and lay waste to your foes.

It’s not like this title has exceptionally long legs; the credits will roll in Sclash in a little more than an hour. For a game at this price point, it doesn’t quite have the staying power required to justify the price of admission.

With a short campaign, lack of online play at the time of release and undercooked fighting mechanics, Sclash puts its worst foot forward to deliver an underwhelming experience.
