Second Samurai Overview
Second Samurai continues the conflict from its predecessor, with the protagonist pursuing the Demon King into the past. The journey spans fifteen distinct eras, including prehistoric, medieval Japanese, and futuristic settings.
Progression through these levels is gated by a specific objective: players must locate and break a required number of vases that imprison souls. The samurai's basic combat moves are punching and kicking, but his capabilities can be enhanced by discovering items such as a sword, projectile knives, and a thunder spell. Health can be restored by collecting food items scattered throughout the stages.
Before starting, players can configure their experience by choosing from several difficulty settings and selecting an initial number of lives. This allows the challenge to be adjusted, making the game potentially fair or challenging based on player preference.
