Ronin Reviews
RONIN is a difficult Turn-Based, Action Platformer that succeeds in creating a unique experience that demands your full attention.
The challenge of remaining undetected is very difficult. . . yet it's oddly refreshing as it forces the player to act quickly, dispelling any notions of passivity
Unique non-stealth stealth game, requiring thought for its potentially punishing battles.
RONIN is over in around seven to eight hours but the lengthy design of the levels makes it feel a lot longer than that. When you're locked in a stalemate with ten armed guards, jumping around the walls to avoid gunfire is more tiresome than engaging. RONIN is good for a few short levels in your spare time, but I can't fathom playing it for a long session.
Ronin is a good, engaging and often difficult game that will certainly appeal to those who are intrigued by the mix of stealth, sword killing, and impressive jumps.
RONIN is fun and challenging at first but it doesn't last long. The lack of variation in its gameplay actually keeps the game's challenge level from rising significantly which isn't something players would expect for a game with a strategic vibe.
Ronin spends more time convincing you of what it's not than it does showing you why you should care about what it is.
Ronin is a fun concept for turn-based platforming, with some of the coolest moments in platforming. But it isn't worth paying about a dollar a level, especially while lacking a decent plot and featuring unnecessarily difficult levels.
