Before it came out, it really looked as if Bikini Zombie Slayers might at least be a guilty pleasure. Instead, it's just guilty - titillation just for its own sake seldom works in gaming, but here, it's been taken to new low. This virtual bikini romp suffers from poor graphics, primitive level design, and controls that will make the player feel like an idiot (or worse). If you really need to see Japanese girls in cosplay outfits to feel manly, just buy some tissue and browse the internet.
Onechanbara might not be a computer game, but that's not stopping it from getting a boob mousepad.
Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers has a lot of things going for it: you get to hack legions of zombies as blood spatters on the screen; protagonists are scantily-clad women carrying katanas; and best of all-jiggle physics. But is the game any good? Daily Nintendo weighs in.
Judged on a point-by-point basis, Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers is not a good game; the presentation is awfully generic, the story and dialogue don't make sense, and the gameplay is ultimately hampered by painful motion controls. However, the relative wealth of content, budget pricing, and perverse sense of style will undoubtedly appeal to a certain audience looking for some guilty pleasures.
So, for most people out there, you can safely pass up Bikini Zombie Slayers, but for that particular group (and you know who you are) you can rest assured that this review was written with a wink and a nod.
