Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido is a bit of an odd one, both as a game and in terms of its plot. Taking on the role of lead character Musashi, you'll be diving headfirst into a world where sushi has caused terrifying wars and devastation, dividing the morals and behaviours of its inhabitants.

"In a world without fish…" is just the kind of opening line that will be enough to get many people ‘hooked' on Nintendo's new venture (co-developed by indieszero). Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido does just that.

Fun; very Japanese art style and voice overs; Great puzzle mechanic; RPG element adds variety; Multiplayer is enjoyable

Puzzles can get a bit repetitive; Story mode drags a little; Small issue with non-touchscreen play; Some RPG elements underutilised

In Sushi Strikers, you aren't sliding colored gems into groups of three or more on a grid, but the part of your brain that sparks when three of the same thing disappears after you make them neighbors lights up here.

Its premise may border on ridiculous, but behind its wacky veneer, Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido hides an expansive package. Despite its short runtime, there's a lot of charm packed into its campaign, and plenty to do once the credits have rolled.
