Shiren The Wanderer isn't a groundbreaking game, or even a stand-out game. What it is though is a perfect example of it's genre – streamlined, challenging and long, with plenty of replayability piled on by the random levels. It's taxing, often to a painful extent, and it isn't for everyone, but for those in the market for a Japanese rogue-like Shiren The Wanderer will provide a rewarding enough experience.
