About game
Slice through rows of bamboo and fruit with precision timing in Samurai Master. You must memorize the sequence of movements shown on screen and replicate them before the timer hits zero. Every strike requires lightning fast reaction to ensure the blade hits the target at the exact right moment. This rhythm based arcade challenge keeps you on your toes as you progress through hundreds of rounds across diverse environments. You can unlock a new katana or harness elemental powers like flame and storm to customize your style. Birds and creatures leap out of the way when you swing, keeping the action lighthearted and focused purely on your skill. Mastering the sequence grants you multipliers that push your score to the top of the leaderboard. Jump into this browser title for free without any downloads required.
How to play
Cut the stalks in the order shown. One wrong move or one moment too slow and the blade stops.
The order is shown first — read it while you can; then repeat it before the timer runs out. Keys: arrows or W A S D. Gamepad: D-pad or face buttons. Touch: tap above, below, left or right of your thumb.
There are only four directions. A gold prompt means hold; a red one means do not press at all — wait it out. You get three lives. A lost round starts over and nothing moves on until it is won; if the lives run out, the stand restarts rather than the whole level. Ten clean rounds in a row give a ×2 multiplier.
