Super janky and rough around the edges, but you can tell the devs actually tried a little bit. The protagonist is the long lost twin sister of Marie Rose. The combat system is not very deep, but it's functional and looks flashy, which is super important for an action game. Can get a little repetitive with the small enemy variety, but the campaign is short and there are multiple playable characters in challenge mode. Definitely nothing special but if you're a fan of Ninja Gaiden, Onechanbara and Metal Gear Rising, you might get a couple of hours of enjoyment out of this. Also, the classic light blue striped panties, visible at all times. Gotta respect it.
