    Difficulté mal dosé, hitbox craké, stun lock abusé tel sont les ingrédients d'un mauvais jeu, dommage.. Il n'a que sont charme nostalgique et des cuts scene un peu sympa..

    Boring combat and extremely linear levels makes this game feel like it came out in 2006, not 2020. Pass on this one

    Here's my review of the Samurai Jack game that combat system is not good. The combat system is not satisfying and it doesn't feel Good to fight the enemies . The characters look like they are high quality figurines so that's good .I would only recommend it if you are really desperate for a Samurai Jack video game

    Graphics are f**kin' foggy, lurid obnoxious... Sound FX: are annoying, loud - exhausting, and *not*

    satisfying at all.

    Gamplay... NEEDS work. --Go play: Ghosts of Tsushima,

    or Sekiro.

    Another game fanboyed by Esport tryhards. The game overly difficult even on easy. The fight consist of getting over ran by bullets and flying enemies that make you flinch over and over where you can't move until you die (literally every fight after 3rd level).

Who thinks that playing a game like this is fun? Why make the game so hard and enemies so spammy and unfun? (May as well put your controller down and let the enemies kill you because you will just flinch every hit and the enemies just keep spamming shurikens at you until you can't move at all) fanboys love this game just because it is a samurai jack game. Look at this combat on this game. It sucks. Combos won't stop until you finish the combo so if you have to block or dodge you can't during an attack. (so once you start an attack if the enemy attacks you, your going to get hit). Trash game ruined by tryhards.… Expand

    This game is pure garbage. Waited this game like a true fanboy and even bought physical copy from limited run games. Gameplay is way too slow paced and mechanics are janky as sh*t. I don't recommend this game for anyone not even a fan of samurai jack. Those so called fans who think there's not anything wrong in this game are blind for a faults of this game or have bad taste for videogamesThis game is pure garbage.

    Sure, at its core, Battle Through Time is a retelling of the TV series with some deviations, but it absolutely nails what makes Samurai Jack a modern animated masterpiece, and it was a delightful surprise to play through.

    Jack is back, with a story fans will love, a welcome return of the original voice cast and surprisingly deep gameplay. The graphics are plain ugly though and the price tag rather steep, especially if you consider the game's short length.

    Not very enthralling and without particular flashes.
