Dancing Sword is mediocre. Its combat is supposed to be built around alternating two attack buttons to pull off impressive combos, although it doesn't really matter which one you pick so it's basically a button-masher. The enemies are almost all pushovers and do little besides block. The graphics at least feature huge sprites, but are otherwise unremarkable.
