Publisher: ININ Games
What I Paid: $7.99
Verdict: Shovelware.
What I Say:
It’s fair to say that I am not a fan of brawler games, of which this is one (technically two). That likely colours my opinion of this release.
Osman (Cannon-Dancer in Japan) is a 1996 Mitchell Corp. arcade game which has been plonked into an emulator and put out there for us to enjoy. It’s described as a remaster but it looks and plays more like the original ROM has simply been wrapped in an emulator. The total download size is a mere 61Mb.
The graphics and gameplay are very 1996 which means very low resolution graphics and many, many quick deaths to keep up the flow of coins. Unless you are a die-hard fan of the original arcade game, I don’t see much to enjoy here.
What They Say:
Set in the near future of the 21st century, the world is controlled by a single corrupt government and under the threat of a evil sorceress, Abdullah the Slaver. Luckily, a lone assassin and top class agent named Kirin offers his skills as weapons for hire.
Kirin must infiltrate the city to defeat several enemies, panic and terror. But once inside the cult’s main temple, he gets attacked by the police force and left to die… Only thanks to his inner strength can he break free from his chained imprisonment and start moving with a single goal in mind: getting revenge against Jack Layzon, the Judicial Affairs Director that hired him initially. But this is far from enough: Three other members of the Teki wants him dead for personal reasons…
