Ronin is stylish a turn-based action platformer following the exploits of a vengeful heroine determined to strike down five prominent figures of a powerful corporation. Move with precision by meticulously planning out each silent step, soaring leap, and devastating swing of your blade from the shadows as you seek your revenge.

This game is just the fight scene from the end of Kill Bill Volume 1, but if it were stealthier. I love it so much. One playthrough is about 3-4 hours, but you'll want to play it again and again. It feels like the developers cut everything inessential and what's left is a tiny morsel of perfection.

I swear it's not just Gunpoint with swords

Very simple yet unique platformer, definitely one of my top picks!

Pros:
+ the fighting mechanic is really dynamic and immerse yourself in the action
+ the story is fairly simple, but it lets you imagine the reasons of this vendetta
+ the graphics are in phase with the ambiance, the facilities and the rain reflect, with good balance, the dark atmosphere
+ the progression in your competences with the skills tree is well balanced and it forces you to not just go on a rampage, and sometimes, the best option is to analyze the level and be stealthy
Cons:
- some checkpoints are not very well placed and force you to walk 5 to 10 seconds to rejoin the fight after each death
- on the platform which you can jump through, sometimes the jump arc indicates you that the next jump is going to pass through the platform, but in fact you stay on it, which resulted in some unexpected deaths, but hey “the jump arc is a lie” :)
Ronin is a solid game with a unique fight style, and which can be quite challenging. I strongly recommend it (even full price).

Nice game with great thought through turn-based fighting system.
I want to warn you about some fact about game (not spoilers).
Though it called ronin - it's not a game about ninja: there is little to no stealth. Usually you need to kill all the enemies and avoid civilian casualties.
There is not a lot of story in this game. Story is plain and simple and motivation of the antagonist is clear from the beginning.
This game is about finding your way in a room with a lot of enemies without fast-paced gameplay. You have your time to think you next step. All this with satisfying visuals and nice music.
If you are looking for moderate game with a sword killing to chill without mashing buttons on your keyboard, this is one to look upon.

You're a ninja girl. Probably, but pretty flat. It's all for aerodynamics anyway. You will jump, you will kill and you will die. A lot. Most fights are little puzzles and you unlock perks as you go on. When you finally figure out a difficult level, it feels pretty good. I didn't get very far, because it's pretty challenging for a small brain, just look at my profile picture. The story is pretty good, the controls and mechanics sometimes rusty but only when you really just want to do weird stuff.
*whoosh* you've seen nothing *slash slash*
