Slashers: The Power Battle

About

Slashers: The Power Battle is a side scrolling combat game where players clash with an array of swords, axes, and magical weapons. Fast paced matches require timing and strategy as you block, dodge, and unleash special moves. Single player modes include story driven challenges while local multiplayer lets friends join in head to head. The controls are straightforward but mastering the combo system adds depth for longer sessions. Released in 2013 this follow up to the Game Boy Advance title Dual Blades brings updated visuals and mechanics. It runs smoothly on PC and Android letting players take the action on the go. With over 10 character options and unlockable content the replay value holds up despite its short initial campaign. Casual fighters and retro style brawler fans might find it addictive though the lack of online play limits long term appeal for some.
