About the Game

Go leg to leg with the fast-paced gauntlet of Armless Samurai.

Armless Samurai is a fast paced first-person parkour game where you play as a samurai whose limbs have been lost in battle, and robbed from their arsenal. Worry not, however, they haven’t taken your legs yet! And this will be your enemy's greatest mistake…

In an effort to seek vengeance for your limbs, take on a mountain of monstrous machines and obstacles to ascend the mighty fortress. As a now armless samurai, you must dash, kick & fight your way through six unique levels on your mission of revenge! Become a warrior of legend, Armless Samurai!

Key Features:

Fast paced parkour movement!
Do anything to rush through. Slide through the castle, charge and dash through your enemies, even run on walls!



Use your legs for everything!
Parry projectiles, fight enemies, destroy obstacles and move around using just your legs.



Battle against mechanical enemies and dangerous obstacles!
Fight against a wide range of unique enemies as you move through each level. Avoid and defeat the castle’s dangerous obstacles using your samurai parkour skills.



Score grading system!
Race against the clock for the fastest times while competing for the highest scores. Combo your attacks to increase your score, aiming to get the highest possible and the legendary SSS rank, or just dash your way through the levels as fast as possible.

Compete against others!
Move around the castle as fast as possible whilst fighting enemies to gain the highest scores possible. Compete against your friends and other players on the Steam leaderboard.
