Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

As an actor/samurai for a troop of Kabuki warriors trying to travel from Edo to Kyoto, you possess both strength and style. Along the way, you'll have to fight other Kabuki troops, garner the favor of the crowd to receive tips, and trade warriors with your defeated counterparts. When you arrive in Kyoto, you will need a very accomplished group of samurai to defeat the city's star troop.

Battle in winner-take-all competitions on stages across Japan, pummeling opponents and striking dramatic poses to gain the crowd's favor and maxing out the popularity bar to perform devastating special attacks. The game includes 24 characters, each with different weapons and unique attacks such as fireballs, fire storms, lightning, and tornadoes. Life and popularity bars affect attack abilities. Game modes include adventure, time attack, tournament, and versus. Graphic effects such as bump mapping, particle effects, and vertex shading produce lifelike warriors and spectacular action.

1.0 out of 5 stars Good title, terrible Game, January 16, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Kabuki Warriors (Video Game)

I lost interest after the first game, i gave it the benefit of a doubt, and i was right about first impressions, the game is very outdated, and the graphics and performance features were below my expectations, reminded me of my atari days.

Man, this game is the worst game I had ever played. EVerything is wrong about this game. THe controls are aweful, TRhe graphics are outdated, the moves (...), the caractors look bad, the fighting is terrible. When I first rented this game because I am a avid game of fighting, after the first match, I returned it to blockbuster. I HAVE NEVER PLAYED SUCH A FAILURE!!(...). This game is abysmal. This game sholud have never been released because it is so(...) aweful. (...)

2.0 out of 5 stars A whole lot of lying going on..., October 20, 2002

This review is from: Kabuki Warriors (Video Game)

First, I loved the concept and the game had some nice graphics (the textures and animations were really nice) It also was a really interesting concept (fighting game that isn't based on a bunch of guys and gals out to rule the world somehow by beating each other up). Unfortunately, the developers or producers were REALLY creative with the truth.
First, there is nothing even close to 24 characters. There are 12 and there is no way to unlock more. If you hold down the trigger, you get to choose different colors of clothing.
Second, the game states that each character has his or her own special power. Of the 12 characters, only 9 have special powers (one of those being invisibility that the computer can see through).
Third, I beat the single player in about 20 minutes and didn't lose once.
The only reason why I gave this game 2 stars was because it's cheap at Fry's ($$$) and I like kicking the heck out of my brother on it.
