PAX East 2013: Usagi Yojimbo: The Way of the Ronin Hands On

PAX East was the place to see (and play) the hottest games for the PC and consoles. Fans of pen and paper plus collectable games were also covered. But iOS and Android had its fair share of presence as well.

Like Usagi Yojimbo: The Way of the Ronin , a smart phone game based upon Stan Sakai's most well known and beloved character. It's actually been out for a couple of weeks now, though the game was recently updated. Among the many necessary fixes were performance enhancements across every supported device, plus the size of the app itself has been slimmed down considerably.

The game itself is a side-scrolling brawler. Think Streets of Rage , though the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game is a better comparison. The graphics are actually quite superb; sprites are nice...
