Underrated game, fun hack & slash, Blades of time a bit better.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
The character don't match the world they live in, making the whole presentation look strange. Combat is boring, and movement is floaty. Feels like a high school project. Avoid this garbage.

Just beat the game today. This game was similar to Afro Samurai in regards to hacking and slashing except without the blood and gore. I would have not paid full price for this game when it was released. However, for a game that is under $20 this is a good game to buy. If you like hack-and-slash type games this a good game to have. You will have to use magic to defeat most of the bosses. Some parts can be frustrating and a bit long, but once you get an idea on how to get past a certain level everything else is pretty smooth. I liked the main chracter, Ayumi, however, the story is nothing special. Overall (my opinion), this is just one of those fun games you own/play to past the time.
X-Blades offer action-packed enjoyment in fantastic Hack-and-Slash style. Using various weapons, spells and tactics, you must fight your way through many indoor and outdoor levels, killing hordes of monsters on the way. The story, exciting and rich in variety with numerous cut scenes not only motivates you, it also cleverly interlinks the individual levels. Besides the "normal" monsters, there are also "Monster Generators", which ceaselessly create new creatures (and of course powerful Boss opponents) for the game world. Hidden Power-ups and coins ensure that you are rewarded for exploring a level. Some locations can only be reached by bold and daring leap/jump combinations. You will only achieve success in the game if you make use of the extensive system for the further development of the heroine Ayumi - Experience Points earned, for example, must be converted to Skills. There are various Power-ups available to help you as well, like combat techniques, magic, weapon enhancement and teleportation and the right mix will lead to success. Apart from that, the use of skills on the "good or bad side" also affects the finale. Depending on your actions, two different game endings await the heroine Ayumi.Read full review
I like this game but that's as far as I went about it. The female is really hot but if thats all you are into then this game isn't for you. I got bored of this game very quickly. Just slashing monsters and building up your spells. Getting to point 1 to point to the best way you can. Usually most games that I really like have a stright forward attack. Just point and shoot. The games that I really like tend to be less of thought of where you should go. Even tho there is thought to it. This game how ever is all over the place, you really have to think on how to kill your enemy, which spells to use. And so on. I am not too Big on fantsy but sometimes its fun to play till I get bored. So if you are into spell's, unrealistic fantasy and want to really think. Then this game is for you.
