Slash of Sword review Thread

Slash of Sword is a gladiator game by LaLapp. Well let's skip the introduction and let's move on.

Graphics

9/10

The graphics are vibrant and beautiful. My only gripes is that sometimes, the enemies looks like the player, which makes it hard to identify.

Gameplay

9/10

The combat is simple. Dodge and slash. Tap slash thrice and you have a combo. Pretty simple but the one that makes this game stands out from the rest is the execution. Boy do I get a chill from playing this game because this is basically The Witcher but only the combat. On papers, it sucks because you only dodge and slash but when you played it, you'll definitely love it. The animation is so beautiful. One of the best I see on mobile games. Watch out for the stamina meter though. That thing makes the game difficult, but fun. You'll wonder why this is 9 despite commending it so heavily, well that is because it got repetitive later on. You just slash the way or something and around 4 or 0 (14 or 20, 24 or 30, you'll get the point) there's a boss fight. There's really nothing to do. And also, it ain't an open world game.

Monetization

8/10

The game is fair. It's pretty easy to get gold. There's an option to purchase a "no-ad" feature while ypu can buy OP weapons. The thing is, weapons you buy with irl cash makes the game easy compared to buying weapons with your hard earned gold.

I recommend not purchasing any in-app purchase other than preventing ads to retain the feel of the game.
