Trek to Yomi- Side scroller Samurai Masterpiece
Trek to Yomi is a gorgeous Side scroller action game.It gives tribute and homages to the timeless Akira Kurosawa movies. If you don’t know who that man is, Well he is one of the most important and influential filmmakers of all time. Watch at least one of his movies before you die.
It’s black and white graphics gives homage to classic Samurai movies of the 1950s. Making the game side scroller is a great idea to make it stand out. We have a trend of single player Samurai action games like Ghost of Tsushima and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.
Those games had been influential on reviving interest about Samurais and feudal Japan in games but this one managed to have its own identity. It is developed by Devolver Digital.
Master your fear, protect what you hold most dear.

Making this uncolored and a sidescroller gives it more originality.
Youtube may have disabled the dislike counter but I am sure this one is not getting a lot. The people’s reaction is mostly positive. If someone told you that video games are not art, show them this trailer.
Trek to Yomi- Gameplay Trailer
It has elements of a Side scroller, a Hack n slash, and Metroidvania. Trek to Yomi is a linear sidescrolling experience with the right levels of badassery. The fixed camera angles also give me some 90s nostalgia because we now live in an era where most games are in first-person or over-the-shoulder cameras.
The Game is about a Young man named Hiroki. He promised his late master to protect his town, from menaces and dangers. He will have to venture from different hurdles to control his destiny and protect others.
Trek to Yomi is available on multiple platforms. PC | PS5 | PS4 | XB S/X | XB1/Nintendo DS.
