Gameplay
You play as one of the three main characters in the film. Your goal regardless of which character you choose is to assist an old samurai in retrieving a prized dagger from an old rival. To do so, you must complete a series of levels, each requiring you to complete a certain task (sometimes with a time limit) before continuing. 
shoots your sword (which may have an item attached to it, such as spreader bullets), 
jumps, and 
uses a special weapon found throughout the levels. while in midair kicks. Hold 
to crouch; moving left/right while crouching will have you crawl and you do not need to keep held while you crawl, so you will stand up once you let go of the D-pad.
