Blast Magazine writes: "It is a shame that Eduardo the Samurai Toaster is not a great game, because Semnat Studios has a lot of talent on display in the audio and visual departments, and they also made it control as well as any of its predecessors in the genre. While those things on the periphery are in place, the core game itself is lacking. At just $8, it is not painful to your wallet, but you would be better served with the established classics in the field that are available for the same price on the same system".

Come on, you're a toaster who's a samurai. How could that not be cool? I can honestly say though, that after playing this game it does not live up to expectations."

Come on, it's a toaster who's a samurai. How could that not be cool? Unfortunately, it isn't, and after a run through it is clear it does not live up to expectations."

GamesRadar writes: "More importantly, there's barely any meat to the fighting. You scroll from left to right, and occasionally from up to down or vice versa, and either blast away using the 1 button with your standard toast or powered-up ammo that you've picked up. You can jump using the 2 button and grab enemies or projectiles and hurl them using B, but there's no real skill involved. There's no scoring system either, which would have given things more focus and added to both the game's appeal and lifespan. Overall, it's underdone".
