A very interesting aspect of a masterless Samurai, Ronin, is the freedom they have to do whatever they wish or roam wherever they desire. This sense of freedom is an important goal in our game design and ideally we would like to let the gamer experience this freedom to create his own story in the beautiful but dangerous lands of the rising sun.
This sense of freedom has been visualized extremely well in the masterpiece movie Yojimbo by the great Akira Kurosawa.
