Plot

Bladed Fury takes us to the mythical version of ancient China. At the beginning of the Warring States period (which lasted from 480 to 221 B.C.), an officer named Tian killed Prince Kang, the older princess, Shu, was placed under house arrest, and the younger princess, Ji, was accused of murder and sentenced to exile - Tian did all that to take the throne of the Qi state himself.

However, Ji, who is the main character of this story, did not give up and went on a long, dangerous journey. Her goal is to gain divine powers to help her bring justice and save the older sister. After returning to the palace, the protagonist discovers that she is standing at the threshold of a new world.

Mechanics

The action in Bladed Fury is shown from the side. The gameplay consists primarily of traversing different locations, avoiding traps and jumping on platforms, as well as participating in dynamic fights. Ji must face weaker opponents as well as huge mythical creatures acting as bosses. The protagonist uses both melee weapons (quick and murderous attacks) and her supernatural abilities, which give her an advantage over opponents.

Technical aspects

Bladed Fury's two-dimensional graphics look appealing thanks to its original style, which makes the game look similar to Chinese paintings. The unique atmosphere is also created by the soundtrack.
