Otogi: Myth of Demons for Xbox Reviews by Gamers

Let's separate this review a bit.
1. Gameplay: 9/10.

The largest problem with the gameplay happens to be the camera, for the most part. At times, I found myself wondering where the enemy I was trying to slash down was. Nevertheless, with some gameplay experience, you can easily get past this, because you'll eventually get to the point where you subconsciously follow the enemies' movements, and you know one of them is behind you, so you just slash it and then go back to what's in front of you, without having to bother with the camera. Other than that, the gameplay is wonderful, and satisfying. It's easy to get into this game, and get used to the controls, but it's hard to master them. As simplistic as the formula seems, it works. Destroy stuff, using spells, swords, large swords, staffs, sticks, spells, etc. to kill everything in sight is quite satisfying. However, there's another somewhat large flaw in the way that works. The levels are often short, fun, and memorable (even if you use one 50 times over to level up). However, some levels are disproportionately challenging to other levels, which makes one level seem extremely difficult, while the next is ridiculously easy. This can make it frustrating to replay some levels. I usually like very easy games, so it's strange that I loved playing through this one. That should tell you something.

2. Graphics: 10/10.

For an Xbox game, it's simply AMAZING. Enough said.

3. Sound: 9/10.

The oriental-ish music is nice, but... it can get pretty annoying. Maybe it's just because I normally prefer hard rock. However, I don't even tire of it. I suppose that says something about how well they selected the sounds. The English voice acting is also awesome.

4. Replayability: 10/10.

Some levels are just plain fun to keep doing, no matter how many times you've done them. It's easy to pick this game up several times after beating it.
