Warner Bros., bring back this absolute gem! Removing your own games for no reason explains how mess W.B. as a whole has become! ):

Note: This game got delisted. So, ya either need to buy a key (like going to Game Stop or EBay), stalk people that do have this game, just to abuse the family share/friendlist or beg Warner Bros. to bring this game back. Not just for Steam, but for ALL platforms. It feels as if all the Adult Swim games survived WB's tax write off purge, except this one.
2nd Note: I'm not done exploring the rest of the game. I just unlock the missions mode.
Controller Compatibility: XBox One, other controllers are unknown. I recommend using controllers rather than the keyboard, even though keyboard works just as well.
Steam Deck: I dunno if this game works on the deck.
Story: 'Battle Through Time' takes play in the last few episodes of the final season. But Aku did something again.
Review: The game is GOATed and everything about it is beautiful like the last time I watched the cartoon (Like Greg Baldwin's voice acting, it feels as though Mako didn't leave). 'Battle Through Time' is one of those 'video game adaptions of non-video games' media that was adapted insanely well (like 'Ghostbusters: The Video Game'). Usually, these types of games are not well done or they're just mid (If I like it). 'SJ: BTT' is a relatively short game, it only has a 9 stages/chapters.
My SIMP-ing for Jack was worth it.
Achievement Hunter Notes: They're 'easy' to get, some are 'finishing the story' chapter achievements. While others need farming, akin to how one levels up Bayonetta. But the 'Masters Of Master' needs ya to be fully maxed out in the skills/abilities department (Something tells me that it's gonna be like the indie game 'Awaria', ya only need to play the 'hard' mode to unlock some of the most difficult achievements). Also, according to a guide, a few achievements are mildly buggy and ya have to restart the game.
Completing the main story unlocks the missions modes.

9.5/10 Great game!
Unfortunately this game was removed from all digital stores last year. It is a wonderful game though.
According to the creator of Samurai Jack, the ending (there are two endings) of the game is canon.
The gameplay is fine, the soundtrack and story are wonderful.
As of right now, this is one of the best Cartoon Network games I've ever played.
Overall:
I don't know why you removed your games from all digital stores, Adult Swim Games.
I really hope you will bring your older games to GOG. Just for the sake of preserving the games for future generations.

Absolute buns that this game is delisted. Only have it thanks to the power of Steam Keys.
Considering the absolute infamous quality of tie-in games for movies and tv shows and the like, this one is one of the few MODERN examples of one that actually plays well and feels FUN. The combat feels like it requires some skill and isn't some button mashy hack n slash, and the story is a nice trip through the shows history while having a simple yet still engaging plot to follow (I'm not all the way through as of writing but it's been a serviceable experience)
As a fan of the show, I was REALLY wanting to get this game, and I regretted not trying to nab it before WB took it down for whatever reason. I'm glad I was still able to get it, it was worth the money and it translates Tartakovsky's style well into 3D.
WB, bring this game back you bozos

You can't buy this game anymore on Steam as it's delisted.
It's alot like Ninja Gaiden except with most weapons being breakable due to durability while having a different stats on variations of weapons under weapon types. Instead of Flip Throw, Izuna Drop, and Flying Swallow being the over powered options you have a Uppercut and Tornado Kick on the fist moveset alongide Perfect Parry and Perfect Dodge slowing time while also making enemies less likely to block or armor through your attacks.
This game on the harder difficulties is genuinely difficult until you unlock enough moves on the skill list to actually deal with the threats the enemies present. Enemies will block you, command grab, and attack you while you are busy with another enemy. Luckly you have the tools to deal with this between parrying, blocking, moving block, dodging, and Invulnerability Frames on some of your attacks.
My biggest issues with the game rise from me not wanting to use most of the weapons due to the Fists being stronger than anything I could pick up while also not breaking on me. Ranged weapons all require ammo and can break as well so using them is usually saved for dire situations.
I wanted to review this after I beat the Hardest difficulty but seeing as you can't buy this game I might as well just put this review out there now.

Huge Samurai Jack fan here. Used to watch the greek dub a lot back in the day before it got cancelled unfortunately and have seen the entire series (RIP Mako :() including the final season when it aired and let me tell you that if you were looking for a really good Souls like reminiscent of 2000's PS2 era games then this is for you.
Too bad you can't really buy it anymore because the licence run out so it got delisted (Instead of the Epic Store games version for some ungodly reason) and aftermarket prices are insane. Thanks Adult Swim Games.
