First Samurai on Msdos Game
"First Samurai" on MS-DOS is a hidden gem that throws you into the shoes of a time-traveling warrior on a mission to reclaim his stolen sword and honor. This side-scrolling action game blends hack-and-slash combat with light puzzle-solving, all wrapped in a vibrant, pixel-art feudal Japan (with a few unexpected futuristic twists!). What makes it stand out? The smooth controls, the satisfying swordplay, and those cheeky power-ups—like summoning a giant, screen-clearing demon head. It’s got that perfect '90s arcade vibe—challenging but addictive, with just the right amount of humor sprinkled in. If you love classic action-platformers with a samurai twist, this one’s a nostalgic trip worth taking."
