    Players would be better off firing up their Hulu apps if they want to get a sense of Samurai Jack’s breadth and wonder.

    Its fine, If you played games similar to this one you'll see it borrows a lot.

For example Jack's normal combo is just Mondo's from killer is dead. I think the most upsetting thing about the game is there is not much to say about it. Its very great value character action. Also i hope you enjoy either early samurai jack or season 5 because that covers most of the stages in the game.

    Otherwise there is only really 2 things that urk me.
    -certain enemy types do not care if they are off-screen they are still going come over and attack you usually with something that'll knock you down.

    Incredibly hard. I played it on medium difficulty, but changed it to easiest cuz it was too hard. Guess what, easiest was also hard. I had toIncredibly hard. I played it on medium difficulty, but changed it to easiest cuz it was too hard. Guess what, easiest was also hard. I had to grind a lot for the arrows and the heals, and in the final fight I was stuck there without any heal. I restarted the whole stage, I had no heals. Nowhere to get heals from, I was stuck there forever. The story let's say is good but the gameplay is terrible. And at the beginning I rated it 10...… Full Review »
