Onimusha: Way of the Sword

Samanosuke Akechi’s journey through Inabayama Castle focuses on rescuing a princess from a surge of Genma invaders. This adventure provides the Oni Gauntlet, a relic crafted to absorb the energy of defeated enemies. Collecting these souls fuels the upgrade of three elemental katanas representing lightning, fire, and wind—weapons essential for combat and clearing physical barriers within the fortress.

The gameplay functions as a focused action RPG requiring a balance between quick strikes and blocking. Success depends on timing the Issen, a technical counter-attack that defeats elite demonic soldiers with one swing. Navigating trap-strewn rooms adds an adventure component featuring mechanical puzzles and hidden chambers.
