Fast-paced action in a myth-inspired world
SONOKUNI is a premium action game that blends fast-paced combat with a world inspired by Japanese mythology. Playing as the lone assassin Takeru, you fight to defend your nation in a strange, biopunk world filled with genetically mutated enemies and cultural symbolism.
Culture and chaos collide
Combat in SONOKUNI is intense, with close-range fights requiring precise timing and smart use of time-manipulation powers. You’ll face enemies with unique abilities, and one wrong move means instant death. However, unlimited retries and quick restarts make failure feel less frustrating and keep the action moving smoothly.
What makes the game stand out is its bold style—bizarre visuals, a Japanese hip hop soundtrack, and a narrative rooted in mythology. However, the fast pace can be overwhelming, and the high difficulty might frustrate some players. Some level designs also have rough edges, like invisible corners that can unexpectedly cause deaths.
A game that hits fast and hard
SONOKUNI blends stylish visuals, fast-paced action, and cultural flair into a unique but demanding experience. Its steep difficulty and occasional design flaws mean it’s best suited for players who enjoy a tough challenge and can appreciate its creative and chaotic design.
