En Garde is an exciting combat-focused swashbuckling game. Think sword-fighting, acrobatics, taking advantage of the environment, witty banter and comedy slapstick. Or Errol Flynn, Zorro or Pirates of the Caribbean

En Garde! is plain fun. Don't think about it, just grab it on sale, play it and enjoy the colorful scenery, straightforward action and funny fighting animations. Kicking a table when hostile guards stand on top alone

Great game! If you're into games like Sifu, but want a simpler experience, this is for you. That being said, the game can be very difficult too, especially if you're going for the 100%. The best part about it is that

I enjoyed this game for its 5 hours of storyline gameplay. I also managed to eek out 30 additional hours grinding for 100% achievement with tasks like never getting hit in an episode or arena match. Accomplishing 100%

It's good to see games that aim to be bite-sized, light-hearted fun, and don't just drag on to add artificial length. Combat is tight, dialogues are funny, and there's a pseudo-roguelite mode if you wanna get more of
