I view writing articles for The Gamers Lounge as a way to expand my gaming palette, and this is no exception. This game has a lot of interesting moments and engaging game play. Even so, there are a lot of eye rolling moments... It genuinely felt like I was controlling an anime, and I don't mean one where they outsource the animation to be done by some cut-rate animation studio.

Blade Arcus is a fairly standard fighting game. The controls are solid. The battles are quick, but the key bindings (for keyboard) leave something to be desired.

Also, get a controller or an arcade stick. Don't be me and play on the keyboard. You can watch my review below if you want to get some game-play shots.
