Gameplay

It is a side-scrolling platform game in which the player take the role of the titular protagonist Yoko, who is armed with a sword. If the attack button is held, Yoko's sword will create a protective shield around her, which can also be thrown at enemies. However, projectiles can break their way through the shield if it receives consistent damage. Players are given a life bar that drops when Yoko receives damage, then slowly regenerates. There are intro and cut scenes between levels.

Reception

The game received mixed reviews, including being rated 46% by German magazine PowerPlay[1] and 88% by French magazine Joystick.[2]
