About the Game
Falling Limbs is a roguelite action deduction game, centered around physics-based samurai battles. Your quest for vengeance is not limited by life or time, only knowledge.
RETRIBUTION KNOWS NO BOUNDARY
The way of the samurai is found in death
- Yamamoto Tsunetomo
As the last surviving member of your clan, you will control your few remaining samurai on the battlefields of Japan’s warring states period. By choosing your path through war you will learn clues to the identity of the shape-shifting sorceress responsible for the destruction of your family.
AN EVER-CHANGING EXPERIENCE
The river’s flow is ceaseless, yet none of the water is the same
- Kamo no Chōmei
It may be that your warriors fall and battle goes against you, but time is no barrier to revenge. Guess the wrong lord and you will reset the board to begin moving the pieces anew, still armed with the knowledge gained in previous runs. The loyalty of your samurai is not bound by death.
KNOW YOUR ENEMY
You must understand that there is more than one path to the top of the mountain
- Miyamoto Musashi
Engage with real historical power-players of the time in your journey toward vengeance: Oda Nobunaga, Takeda Shingen, Uesugi Kenshin and many more. Each lord has traits, characteristics and opinions that you will uncover and use to deduce your foe’s identity.
TOOLS OF THE TRADE
The warrior’s weapons are the extension of his body
- Tsunetomo Yamamoto
Fight with a range of weapons from the age of the samurai and of the legends of its heroes. Falling Limbs has something for every school of training, from katanas, spears and clubs to bows, matchlocks and even a devastating cannon.
MAKE THE CUT
Throughout your life advance daily, becoming more skillful than yesterday, more skillful than today. This is never-ending
- Tsunetomo Yamamoto
Fight with a range of weapons from the age of the samurai and of the legends of its heroes. Falling Limbs has something for every school of training, from katanas, spears and clubs to bows, matchlocks and even a devastating cannon.
EXPRESS YOURSELF
For a samurai, to be indifferent to his attire is to show disrespect for the people who see him. A noble appearance and demeanor have the power to command respect and awe
- Daidōji Yūzan
Customize your warrior’s armor type, pattern and color to bring your own style to the battlefield, with trillions of possible combinations. Find new pieces for your collection as you fight through Japan and keep your favourite combinations on display in the armor room.
FIGHT AS ONE
An arrow snaps with ease when it is one; bind it with another and it will not break. Take this to heart and be of one mind
- Mōri Motonari
Bring a friend to the fight and unearth the story together with local co-op mode. Of course allies quickly turned to enemies in the time of warring states; versus battles can also be fought across the stages of the sengoku jidai.
