Description
About This Game
ENTER THE NINJA
Flash of the Blade X is a first-person slasher set in Feudal Japan.
Take control of a ninja on a quest for revenge against the clan that betrayed him and left him for dead.
Use period-accurate weaponry such as the Katana, Kusari-Gama, and Shuriken to bring death upon enemies.
Key inspirations for the project include Sho Kosugi movies such as Revenge of the Ninja, the Shinobi games, Wolfenstein 3D, and speed-running platformers.
Originally released as "Flash of the Blade", Flash of the Blade X has undergone a ground-up remake, with new levels, new art, better balancing and and an all-around thick coat of polish. The initial one-hit-kill mechanic has been removed in the interest of a deeper experience, and making the game more accessible.
