Of course. Most people think it's just Wrap your hand around the hilt, wrap the enemy around the blade, but no. In truth, it's much more complex than that.

It looks better than alot of crappy western slashers. It cant be worse than splatterhouse.
The main weakness of it is the fact they've put a story in it. A cutscene driven story is always gonna be horrible in a low budget game. They should have just had 'You are Krull, Mighty warrior' and left it at that.

Looks ok i guess... Kinda reminds me of this game on original xbox called Gauntlet.

I wish they would just once make a slashing game where every strike causes a visible wound on the things you hit. Have it to where enemies, if actually hit, do not last too long unless they have thick skin or armor plating.
I also don't like how when you stab things in the stomach they don't immediately clutch the wound. The whole "Throw your arms open and gaze at the sky" bit is kind of meh.
I like the character and monster designs though.
At best it will be a solid, if average game me thinks.

I was correct in my assessment: This game is very good for a weekend, but I wouldn't have payed full retail for it.
If your a fan of hack and Slash, I fully recommend this game, it pushes you to the limit at times (Second boss I had to fight, but since I ran out of Health Runes right before, I could only take one hit and I had to beat him down all 100%. Second most satisfying victory ever).
