Our take on Violet Wisteria
Combat revolves around choosing among three colored sword attacks to match enemies, with the same mechanic also applied to stage obstacles.
What is Violet Wisteria?
Violet Wisteria is a fantasy platformer starring Wisteria Asagiri, who travels across dimensions to stop the wizard Maskandes and protect Earth, the Higher Realm, and the Under-Realms.
Its central mechanic uses three sword attacks, each with a different color. Enemies appear in color variations, and choosing the matching attack is needed to defeat them. The same system is used to deal with stage obstacles, so progress depends on quick decisions rather than repeated button presses. The game has eight stages of platforming and boss fights, with a skills-based structure and a fantasy presentation inspired by Japanese platformers from earlier eras.
