Rurouni Kenshin: Enjou! Kyoto Rinne
Rurouni Kenshin: Enj ō! Kyoto Rinne is the third game to deal with the
adventures of Kenshin Himura, the famous fictional red-haired samurai. This
one focuses on the Shishio saga, or the transition from the Bakumatsu period
to the Meiji era (28-62 episodes in the anime), and is what could be called a
fighting arcade game inside a world of adventure (with the usual dialogues,
visiting different places, etc), but adding more emphasis in the fighting
aspect.
There are 4 game modes, of which you will only see one in the beginning: the
History mode. There you can play with either Kenshin, Sanosuke Sagara or
Hajime Saito, and there’s also a secret character you can unlock when you
finish it at least once. Players can upgrade their character abilities and
speed from fight to fight, introducing a small RPG component. The character
development and storyline is different according to the character you have
chosen.
The gameplay consists of typical brawling against multiple enemies at once,
shown from a third-person perspective. Next to regular attacks and combos,
there are also special ones introduced through a short cut-scene.
