All the characters in this game are named after food products.

Yeah… still! I was pleasantly surprised with the game.Ĭome for the Final Fantasy VIII demo, stay for the samurai game that you actually paid for!Ī couple fun facts before we get to the music of the game: I’m awful- I actually opened up the box and played the FF8 demo BEFORE Brave Fencer Musashi.

So… who here actually played this game? Raise your hand! Did you buy it just for the FF8 demo? Admit it! ADMIT IT! That’s what I did. All I know is they produced a completely underrated game. There’s not all that much information on them.

I mean, Sekito was composing music from TMNT games and these guys were all working on platformers and shooters… I’m not really sure how these guys got involved with Square (whether Square bought out a studio or they “defected”). An example of Sekito’s output on Gameboy: The music was scored by Tsuyoshi Sekito, another former Konami employee. The writer was Koichi Ogawa, who worked with Yoshimoto on Batman Returns. The game was directed by Yoichi Yoshimoto, who was involved with Konami’s Rush’n’Attack (1987), Batman Returns (1993), Monster in My Pocket (1992) and many others. What’s interesting about the game is that many of the people involved were former Konami employees. There’s also something with two swords and making bread and like, chibi rabbit things? OH and DDR- there’s a DDR minigame… and zombie bowling.īrave Fencer Musashi was an action/adventure game released in Japan on July 16th, 1998 and in the US on October 31st, 1998 (HALLOWEEN RELEASE) by Square.

Today, we’ll talk about a food themed game that somehow tells the story of Miyamoto Musashi but really doesn’t. Welcome back to another edition of Lesser-known Video Game Soundtracks. “If I’m reincarnated, I wanna be Musashi again!”
