Samurai Kento is an average but enjoyable action-adventure game. While its premise of an elder samurai protagonist is unique, the gameplay doesn’t introduce anything particularly new or groundbreaking. That being said, the game has a certain charm, and I found myself developing a soft spot for it despite its flaws. Perhaps this stems from an appreciation for the developer’s effort and passion, which is evident in the final product. It’s clear that Samurai Kento was crafted with care, even if it doesn’t always hit the mark. For its modest price, Samurai Kento is more than worth the cost of admission, especially if you’re looking for a simple, quick game to play over a weekend. Just be sure to temper your expectations and enjoy the ride for what it is: a short, straightforward adventure that doesn’t take itself too seriously.

Takes a stab at being interesting, but your very weak attack and a lack of anything really inspired holds it back

The upside of lightUP making essentially the same game over and over again is that they generally know what they’re doing, and their games generally work as they’re supposed to. If you just want another metroidvania, you’ll find that here. But you could also find it in most of their other games, which makes it hard to see why you’d pick this one specifically.
