Draw Your Line, Cut Them Down

One finger does everything: aim in slow motion, release to dash and watch the whole line split in two.

FOCUS AND AIM

  • Press and hold: time slows down while the Focus bar lasts.
  • Drag: a red cut line stretches from the ronin to your finger, with a live preview of how many enemies it will hit.

DASH AND CUT

  • Release: the ronin dashes, untouchable while moving, and cuts everyone on the line.
  • Cut enemies freeze for a moment, then all split in two at once. A quick tap is a spinning cut around you.

INK AND CHAINS

  • 3 ink drops: each dash costs 1, and a dash that kills gives one back, so chain your cuts.
  • Double, Triple and Quad Cuts and the Massacre multiply your score; counter cuts earn a bonus.

ENEMIES AND BOSSES

  • Swordsman, Archer, Spearman, Bomber, Shieldbearer, Ninja, Monk, Gunner and Oni; every attack is announced by a red warning.
  • A boss every 5th wave: Shogun General, Raijin, Spider Queen, Shadow Twin and the two-phase Dragon Spirit.

Why Ronin Dash?

A sharp, stylish action game drawn in black ink and red seal paint: slow motion, iai cuts, ink splatter and satisfying combos.

5 ARENAS

  • Temple Courtyard, Bamboo Grove, Snow Bridge, Burning Village and Moon Garden, each like a hand-painted picture.
  • Ink stains from every fight stay on the ground.

RANKS AND DOJO

  • Climb from Rank 1 to 50 and unlock 10 katana trails, 9 outfits and 5 arenas.
  • Start from Wave 6, 11 or 16, or switch on the hard modes: One Heart, Ink Drought and Blitz.

COMBOS AND GAME FEEL

  • Keep the chain alive from SHARP all the way to LEGENDARY RONIN.
  • Hit-stop, speed lines and screen shake (which you can turn off) make every cut land hard.
