Slash Saber

About Slash Saber

Slash Saber is an endless 3D sword game that rushes you down a lantern-lit wooden dojo corridor. Bamboo stalks and straw training posts come at you from the floor, the ceiling and the sides, and you cut through them by sweeping your katana across the screen. Some obstacles are armoured on one side and can only be cut from the open direction, so read each one before you swing. Every clean cut adds to your score, and the run ends when three obstacles hit you. Between runs, build your own sword by mixing blades, guards and hilts from ten themed sets, each with its own glowing trail colour. Turn on Rush mode for a faster run with a higher score gain, adjust swing sensitivity, and choose a graphics preset that suits your device. Your highest and last scores are kept on this device.

How to play

Move the mouse, or drag a finger on touch screens, to swing the sword through obstacles. Armoured obstacles must be cut from their open side. Esc or Space pauses; the sword menu on the pause screen changes blade, guard and hilt.
