This is a great game! You play as various assassins and complete various missions with stealth kills and direct sword fights while using your surroundings to your advantage.

I feel sorry for the kids who now get snuck up on as I steathly sneak around the house… I just need more time and less sleep now…

Review by Chris on 21st June, 2010
2 stars "Controls are a let-down"

I picked this up because the price was good and I'd considered the previous Tenchu games to be excellent. The reviews I'd checked beforehand warned about the motion-controls, but I thought surely it's not unplayable, right? From Software usually know their stuff.

It's very nearly unplayable. While there are some great innovations to the series, like the stylized use of shadows and extinguishing lamps to move unseen, you'll spend more time wrestling with the controls than enjoying the game. Even if you manage to play through the level, having the success of a stealth kill being dependent on how manically you can flail your arms about isn't fun at all.

There are plenty of examples of elegant use of the Wiis motion-controls in mainstream action games – but sadly, this isn't one of them.
