In short
HOSHIKAGE is a swipe-based sword game where players deflect incoming attacks by swiping in four directions, then hold to unleash Issen and cut down staggered enemies. It offers a Story mode with no dialogue and an Endless mode that rewards chaining deflections for a higher score. Its standout feature is the rhythm-based deflection system, where chaining hits builds Quickening to break enemy stances.
Summary by Debuts, based on the App Store listing.About
Deflect. Break. Issen.
Swipe up, down, left, or right to deflect incoming attacks and break your enemies’ stance. Then touch and hold to unleash Issen, cutting down all staggered enemies in a single strike. Feel the tension of deflecting attack after attack, then the thrill of a decisive counterstrike. Enjoy the clash of blades with simple swipes and holds.
Enemies close in from both sides and coordinate their attacks to overwhelm you. One enemy strikes between the blows of another’s combo. Read each attack’s direction and timing, and deflect in rhythm.
Chain deflections to spark Quickening, which helps you break your enemies’ stance. Turn successful deflections into an opening for Issen. Boss battles put your skills to the test.
