Trek to Yomi is a side-scrolling action game, where you play as a samurai set on vengeance.

Two days in a row, two sword-based action games, and they could not be more different.

There is an elegance to a katana that's just not there with a broadsword, and comparing these two games side by side is eye-opening.

The look of Trek to Yomi took me by surprise. It's set in black and white, as if it was a Kurosawa film (with film effects and everything). While it's technically side-scrolling, the opening tutorial of the game has you walking towards and away from the camera in the Z-axis as well, giving the game a beautiful sense of three dimensions.

The sound is lush and gorgeous, and the controls are intuitive. There aren't a dozen different combinations to remember, just a few, which makes the swordplay come to life. I very quickly found myself instinctively weaving and blocking, rotating to face another enemy and seeing him off.

I'd seen Trek to Yomi mentioned a few times since it was released, but the idea of playing a game in black and white as an Edo period samurai didn't grab me at all.

Yet as soon as I'm finished writing this review, I'm going back to play some more.

Trek to Yomi is:

5: Excellent

Ran into my first hard lock with Trek to Yomi. I was navigating through a burning village and then it slowed to a crawl, and eventually solid. I guess this is why it isn’t verified for Steam Deck yet. Oh well… I guess I won’t be finishing this chapter tonight. I did get an achievement for executing 50 successful counters, so at least I have that going for me.

Qué preciosidad visual es #TrekToYomi 😍 Además me encanta porque no se corta ni un pelo en las escenas crudas. Es un juego adulto y actúa como tal. Bendito 'Ghost of Tsushima', que ha creado escuela... #PS5Share

Trek to Yomi is such a visually stunning and stylish game!
Every shot is so cinematic, and that light work!... *chef's kiss*

I would have wished for a little bit more complex fighting system, but man, these silhouette duels seen through shoji paper screens... 🤯 🤩
