There are times you want to hate it and times you really start to enjoy it. The game is a technical marvel of its time and definitely meant to be enjoyed by retro lovers alike and anyone wanting to revisit namcos past. Just know it has that classic late '80s arcade game jank. but regardless the action is pretty fun and the game is begging you to master its strange mechanics. Once you master or familiarize yourself with Kagekiyo's movement and understand most of the game's rules you are sure to be in for a good time. Genpei Tōma Den may not be a masterpiece per se but it definitely is a great game to play to kill the time as you travel as Kagekiyo from hell slaying many strong enemies and opponents all the way to Kagekiyos arch-enemy Minamoto no Yoritomo.
