Samurai Master is a fun game where you are a samurai who is under a brutal and ambitious warlord. Unable to just sit by and watch the warlord is doing to the citizens, you decide to go to Tokyo(Edo) to warn the Shogun of the warlord’s evil plans. You must fight many samurai on the way to the capital and prove your honor and skills. This is truly one game I really enjoyed and did not get bored of the hacking and slashing quickly. The journey is broken up into several mini-levels from city to city.

First, you will face swordsman and archers. I suggest you go to the two ends of the map first to find the archers and kill them first, otherwise you will lose life by their arrows. Just jump over the swordsman to get to the archers and watch for the arrows as they fly close to you and jump over them too. Once you eliminate the archers, its easy to kill the swordsman at leisure going from one side to the other. Use that super-dash in emergencies.

Also don’t forget the three guys at the bottom of the map screen, the ones that heal and give upgrades, they are vitally important. The old guy heals you 1000 HP for 2000g. Wait until you lose 1000HP first before you go to him. Don’t go to him whenever you lose 50 HP. I’d get the +70 damage upgrade first before I get the aura and fatal strike upgrades, damage is pretty key. It’ll take you a while to get to Tokyo, buy its a a lot of fun on the way. I’ll post up a video if I can find one. Feel free to discuss.
