Legends of Hiro

Wise-talking street samurai Hiro is spitting some rude verse in this fresh Japanese adventure. There's a touch of the original Zelda games in this up-down-left-right scrolling magical adventure, but the dry wit seems to be trying a bit too hard to echo the timeless perfection of the Monkey Island games.

This game won't have you perplexed for long. The gameplay is far simpler than its peers, like recent hit Dwarf Complete, and you shouldn't have too much trouble defeating Satan's minion.
