Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 24 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I'm trying to have fun, but I hate the controls. The in-game config greatly limits how you can change them. It can't recognize triggers and it has you assigning buttons to actions instead of actions to buttons. The pause menu also doesn't consistently pause gameplay. It can even still register inputs for gameplay while navigating the menu.
🏮 It's weird. A fast-paced action that's a spiritual successor of its little-known arcade original, but heavily inspired by the «SHINOBI» series. It only has five levels (two sections each), but it's no walk in the park — it can be genuinely HARD at times. The problem is that the devs have stopped patching it. People complain about tech and visual bugs, but they don't prevent you from completing the game; the real problem is balance. Lose all your lives and you restart the entire level, which is often unfair, given the sometimes far-off checkpoints, the timing of individual enemies in tricky situations, and the deadly pits. I usually drop unfair (broken) games because they're a waste of time, but this one is still GOOD, and even better than some later releases in the genre. It's full of secrets, and you can supposedly increase your HP (no sense, it's lost after death ???), but it's not a game you'll want to replay after finishing (and there's no point in doing so, since there's only one character, unlike the first one). If it were fixed, it would be a real gem, but it looks like the devs didn't bother (even the artist's name isn't shown correctly in the credits).

Тяжело рекомендовать данную игру, она вроде и норм, но баги достаточно утомляют, а последний босс вообще скучный
O jogo é bom, mas tem problemas que estragam ele como bugs que impedem vc de pular e vc acaba morrendo várias vezes por causa disso, item que aumenta a quantidade de barra de hp que se morrer perde ele, mesmo se passar de fase sem morrer, ele só continua se vc conseguir ficar o jogo todo sem morrer
The menus and such leave a bit to be desired but the game is pure 2D action platforming gold!
Ganryu 2 is a Fast Paced 2D Action Platformer about Musashi and built around the famous samurai Takezo Musashi from Japanese Edo Period. The game offers 5 intense stages of platforming and fast paced action where you only have 5 HP points, however there are lots of food items that you can find during the stages to keep you alive till the end of the stage. Each stage is divided into mid stage boss and end of stage boss with each offering a challenging strategy and dodging speed to beat. The music and soundtracks were so engaging and brings back the old Japanese Era. The only downside which I found was stage 4 which was a bit bugged in the character performing the jumping ability where you can get stuck sometimes and have to dash ability in order to fix the jump. Other than the above issue, the game can be difficult if you're not quick enough in dodging, having a good memory can be crucial here to remember the dangerous parts of a certain stage and avoid dying and losing lives. The game was fun and challenging at the same time which I enjoyed alot especially the challenging fast paced boss fights. Overall Rating 8/10
Only played this for a little bit but I'm surprised how good it is. It's similar to Sega's Super Shinobi games. Controls, graphics and sound are really nice. The wall jump is awkward and could need at least some dedicated animations but that's my only complaint. But beware: Once you are out of lifes you are reset to the start of the world (or even the game?). I'm too old for that but I recommend it to Shinobi fans who are fine with this.
El juego esta bueno aunque tuve un problema no se si soy yo pero con el joystick mirar al lado opuesto estando sentando tiene un pequeño delay que durante el combate te puede costar puntos de salud, le doy positivo porque aunque tenga ese detalle el juego es muy entretenido y sus jefes finales son desafiantes.
is not good
