Description:
Ganryu 2: Hakuma Kojiro is an exciting 2D platform game that continues the legacy of its predecessor, *Ganryu*, developed by VISCO back in 1999. Set against the backdrop of a fantastical feudal Japan, this game is deeply inspired by the story of Takezo Musashi, whose epic adventures are captured in various literary works, most notably 'The Stone and the Sword', published in 1930. Boasting stunning pixel art reminiscent of classics like Shinobi 3 and Shadow Dancer, Ganryu 2 immerses players in an engaging world filled with action and exploration.
Storyline
After defeating his long-time rival Kojiro, Miyamoto Musashi retreats to the serene northern province of Hokkaido to meditate and explore the arts. However, during one of his meditative sessions, a voice disrupts his peace: "Miyamoto Musashi, our battle is not over! I await you to settle this once and for all! All of Japan shall pay for your insult!" The anguished spirit of Sasaki Kojirō resurfaces, compelling Musashi to journey from north to south across Japan, ultimately returning to Ganryū-jima, the site of their legendary duel. Here, Musashi must confront Kojiro once more to free his vengeful spirit forever.
