Win a copy of Muramasa: The Demon Blade!

Image for Win a copy of Muramasa: The Demon Blade!Calling all North American Vanillaware fans!

We've teamed up with Ignition Entertainment to give you the change to win a copy of Muramasa: The Demon Blade on Wii!

The side-scrolling action game combines beautiful hand-drawn art, inspired by Japanese mythology and culture, with classic 2D action! The Demon Blade transports you to the Genroku era on Honshu, the main island of Japan. Enter the Demon Blade - a set of powerful swords said to bring power, but with a price: madness, tragedy and in extreme cases, death. With all the conflict caused to seek out these deadly blades, creatures from the netherworld and Demon Gods are summoned to cause even more trouble.

We're offering one lucky winner a copy of the game, with a beautiful wall scroll for second place, and a poster for third.

To enter, answer the following question, including your name and contact email.

What has the male protagonist in Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Kisuke, lost?

a) His treasure
b) His memory
c) His Nintendo Wii

Send your answer to jb[at]cubed3.com with the subject "Muramasa Competition", and your answer. E.g. if you chose c), use "Muramasa Competition - C".

Competition closes on Wednesday 21st October 2009.
Good luck!


"It's refreshing to see a 2D title given so much care, and Muramasa: The Demon Blade is looking like the crown jewel in Rising Star's Christmas line-up. It's beautiful, it plays well and there seems to be a lot of game in there. I got absorbed in it for 40 - 60 minutes and it was nowhere near enough - you owe it to yourself and your Wii to play it."

    Guests don\'t deserve it, so members that have registered since this contest started SHOULD be disqualified.

    On another note, it would be so incredibly awesome if I were to win this.Smilie

    NOTE: That just sounded arse-ish of me, so I\'ll just say \"Good Luck!\"

    It requires great courage to look at oneself honestly, and forge one's own path.

    I think it\'s definitely not by e-mail, since it did say \"at\".

    Wow, yeah, there can't be a whole lot of competition here. The chances that I'll win one of those prizes are probably... well, higher than usual for these kinds of contests.

    Now, when you say North America, that would include Canada and Mexico.. right? Just to be proper about the term.

    Otherwise, the contest should read: Open only to residents of the United States of America.

    I assume Canadians are allowed, but guests are not.

    Canada is a part of North America...Mexico counts as Middle America I think.
