Cubed3
By André ErikssonChambara is a very strong local multiplayer title that catches some of the appeal of the late 90's deathmatch experiences, added with some stealthy hide-and-seek elements. While it's fun while it lasts, the fact that at least two players are required to play, mixed with the feeling of being one of those "in between" games that are played for like 10 minutes, makes it difficult for it to last as well as some of the older classics, and makes it hard to build up a great gaming night on its own, but the time it gets in the spotlight will be remembered fondly by those present, and will be revisited again and again.

By Aleksander GilyadovChambara lacks solo play, but its fast-paced kinetic action makes for a thrilling co-op experience.

By Chad SapiehaThis USC Advanced Games Project release has some great – if underdeveloped – ideas around local competitive play

By Matthew GallagherThese juxtapositions are what makes this game so great; it is a constantly shifting experience which is easy to pick up, but difficult to master.
