13 of 51 sampled reviews raised it
Kaikan is an extremely fast-paced game with an awesome heavy metal soundtrack to match its speed and ferocity; and even though you have less bullets to deal with than in a typical STG, those which do appear also have a habit of being really quick (especially those darned tracking lasers).
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
11 of 51 sampled reviews raised it
great score-focused play, and quite a bit more digestible than the arcade inspirations. can't go wrong with this one, especially if you like fun scoring mechanics.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
5 of 51 sampled reviews raised it
Visually, KAIKAN favors straightforward retro-inspired pixel graphics and functional battlefield readability over elaborate spectacle.
