Inuyasha: A Feudal Fairy Tale
Description (IGDB)
Inuyasha: A Feudal Fairy Tale is a 2D fighting game starring characters from Rumiko Takahashi's manga and animé series, Inuyasha. The story centers around 15-year old high school student Kagome Higure, who inadvertently slips back in time to feudal Japan, where she becomes embroiled in a quest to locate shards of the Sacred Jewel of the Four Souls. "Feudal Fairy Tale," the game's main mode of play, follows this escapade and requires players to engage in a series of battles and mini-games in order to obtain the coveted shards. Initially, only Kagome and her half-demon companion Inuyasha are playable, but as players journey through the game, acquiring shards, more characters become available. Each character is able to perform both strong and weak attacks, as well as throws and counter attacks. Players can also execute more powerful combination maneuvers, including special and super attacks, which can only be initiated when the Spiritual meter is filled. Additionally, specific attacks can cause opponents to drop shards that, once claimed, will fill the Spiritual meter more quickly.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« InuYasha may not be able to compete with the big boys of the fighting genre, but fans of quirky anime games or those looking for a budget fighter won't be disappointed. »
« Packs enough personality and otaku-friendly sights/sounds to compensate somewhat for its mindless, button-mashing gameplay. »
« A standard 2D fighting game - not as deep or involved as your typical Capcom fighter - but it's still fun to play. [May 2003, p.45] »
« A bland-looking, simplistic fighting game. Inuyasha's button-mash gameplay feels stiff and dry, so even Versus matches aren't likely to hold your interest for long. [May 2003, p.136] »
« Should prove surprisingly playable for fans of the show... Unfortunately, InuYasha's actual fighting engine is rather mediocre, not to mention unbalanced, so hardcore fighting buffs will probably want to steer clear. [May 2003, p.97] »

« I am shocked how horrible this game is. Not only do you have to unlock everything within the game from the start save for Kagomi and Inuyasha, but you also have to go through this odd single player campaign where you see very butchered recap stories of the entire anime. The game gives super flimsy excuses for fighting people, and overall just isn't interested in giving any kind of extra content that a player might like. Literally everything here is something either super generic, or previously said. Nothing about this game's story or premise is exciting or entertaining either. At it's best, it gives you compressed jpeg pictures of photos that probably took 5 minutes to load on the internet at the time, and at it's worst it's a withholding mini-game riddled mess. I literally just wanted to play a nice fighting game featuring Kagome and the gang, and the game ACTIVELY prevents that.Even getting into the actual fighting aspects of the game is meddling, with the actual mechanics of the game boarding around surprisingly simple execution, and horrid stilted combat. Combos do not feel fluid, and the game does not reward you for performing any of them. Super attacks come out very slow, and can slow down the entire fight. Spamming is optimal and easy, and in the end it really comes down to who in the cast can spam better, and why is Koga?Somewhere in this game is a neat mechanic with the jewel system the game offers, but it's slowed down at every turn from being something more than just poorly managed merchandise. In a lot of ways, it feels like they were trying to great something fun and exciting till corporate told them it's due in a month after the 1st week of working on it. I do not recommend this game to anyone, not even the fans of the series. There are far better games out there, and probably a better fighting game too. »
