Princess Kaguya Legend of the Moon Warrior is a good looking beat em up but the gameplay and controls don't hold up well. Both the in game and cutscene art is good and the music is ok but once you start playing the controls are not responsive enough and the enemies themselves aren't fun to fight. Cutscenes are not able to be skipped which can also be annoying. Fighting feels unresponsive and the animation takes too long to complete which can make you feel like you are stuck longer in place for longer than you would expect. If you get it for a low price you might find it worth it it but the actual gameplay isn't worth the normal price point.

It's difficult for me to see what Princess Kaguya tries to be, it's somewhat of an Odin Sphere clone connected with beat'em up but sadly the game failed in so many ways. I would recommend the developer to get a copy of Cadillacs and Dinosaurs to see how good game of this genre should play like. Legend of the Moon Warrior suffers from poor hit response and floaty controls that kill the fun this title could bring.

Reminiscent of the Street Fighter games, Princess Kaguya is another title that I'm proud to have purchased. Graphically, this game is outstanding and the animations are fluid and look great. The gameplay is your traditional beat 'em up, but the Japanese setting and inclusion of mythical creatures make this stand out from other titles in the genre. Last but not least, the bosses provide a hearty challenge and will provide you with some memorable battles. Go on, give this game a shot!
