Hundred Word Review – The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai April 24, 2009

I’ve been looking forward to this one for a while now, the visual style caught my interest from the first time I saw it. It basically plays like a 2D version of Devil May Cry, although not as good. While the gameplay and controls are relatively solid, it’s the enemies that ultimattely let it down. They often get stuck in a pattern of repeating the same few moves over and over again, and the fact that they are often pretty cheap doesn’t help. A good game with impressive stylised visuals, but one that can often become an overly frustrating experience.
