SAMURAI CHALLENGE
SAMURAI CHALLENGE is a VR Action Game which tests your skills as a samurai. Awaken your inner samurai as you face enemies in virtual environments modelled after the lands of medieval Japan on which samurai fought.
Draw your sword and prepare to strike down foes as they charge at you.
A simple action game in which you use your entire body
As well as your ability to handle a sword, your ability to dodge and guard against enemy attacks will also be tested.
A diverse array of battle situations
Step onto battlefields amid flurries of cherry blossoms, castles under siege, deep fog and inky darkness in the dead of night. Test your skill as you face hordes of foot soldiers, spearmen, cavalry, archers and artillery.
See how you stack up against famous historical samurai
At the end of a battle, you will find out which famous samurai you resemble. The result will also vary depending on your score and fighting style, and will differ from stage to stage. Aim for a score on par with your favourite samurai!

There are already a reasonable number of VR games where you have to defend yourself on the spot against incoming enemies or projectiles,
but in Samurai Challenge you will also see a comparison between you and a known samurai after each stage based on your fighting style and accuracy in a ranking system.
Check out Samurai Challenge gameplay here:
There are ten parts in the game, spread over beautiful locations that almost make you feel as a player in Feudal Japan,
from among the well-known sakura trees, or cherry blossoms as it is better known, to the open expanses of a slaughter field and even in a castle.
You will need to defeat incoming enemies and fired arrows using dual (or single) swords and avoid getting hit.
These enemies can then be swordsmen, spear throwers, but also troops that run towards you on horseback,
You will also have to dodge other projectiles such as incoming fireballs.
The game lets you play very intensively when you really want to challenge yourself, of course you can create a getting used to gameplay, but once you set the game a bit more difficult you will quickly see that it doesn't always have to be that easy.

Not bad. Graphics are really good and immersive. The feel of slicing takes some getting used to. The slicing doesn't feel great. Hopefully they can update the game and make it feel better.
The game has a Japanese feel to it which I like and the difficulty is borderline impossible even on the 4th stage out of 10 so I'm wondering if it's even possible to beat this game. Either way you can replay the early stages for a more relaxed experience I already feel myself getting better at it.

SAMURAI CHALLENGE is a paid VR hack and slash wave game. It worked on my HTC Vive and Index system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. Has instructions and tutorial. Has only roomscale movement. Incremental Increases in difficulty by adding more attackers per second.
Maybe buy this game on sale, if you don't have others like it.
I got a free key for this from the Steam Curator program.
