Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja

Not bad

This game will appeal to people who like to be punished. You start out in a village where somehow the gods become angered and you must go appease them by beating the crap out of them. You'll find them in 6 (or more, i haven't finished the game) randomly generated dungeons which are randomly littered with items, monsters, and traps. Each time you take a step or use an item, etc. all the monsters in the dungeon get to do the same. Fighting the monsters and collecting items is quite fun. The punishment comes in when you die. When you die you lose EVERYTHING except your experience. There's little reason to bother trying to hoard items because they'll disappear when you die, and you'll die often.

All in all this is a fun game. If i were to compare this game to another game I would have to say it's like Diablo or Diablo 2, but without the ability to go get your body after you die.
