Kenshi Shield
Kenshi Shield (剣士シールド)
A hand-drawn boss-rush game made by a dad and his kid.
Pick your weapon, step into the arena, and take down a lineup of toothy, googly-eyed bosses one by one. Every enemy, weapon, and hero was inspired by drawings a
child made — so expect bold black outlines, jagged grins, and a knight with a bright red plume who refuses to back down.
No installs, no downloads of giant files — it runs right in your browser.
⚔️ Choose Your Weapon
Each weapon has a quick tap attack and a hold-to-charge special. Find the one that fits your style:
- Sword — Fast close-range slashes, or charge up to throw a flying slash.
- Shield — Hold to block. Raise it to shrug off projectiles from any direction; line them up just right and reflect them back.
- Hammer — Charge a heavy ground-pound, or spin into a whirling attack while you move.
- Bow (Game 2 only) — Fire quick arrows, or draw back to auto-aim at the nearest boss.
You start with 3 lives, get brief invincibility after a hit, and your weapon is locked in for the run — so choose wisely.
👹 Two Games, Many Bosses
- Kenshi Shield 1 — Battle the Sword, Bow, Hammer, and Bomb bosses... and unlock a hidden boss if you can find it.
- Kenshi Shield 2 — Unlocks once you clear Game 1. Tougher bosses with all-new attacks, a final Spike Boss, and a secret fused boss with a second form for the
bravest fighters.
Every boss has its own attack patterns to learn and dodge — flying charges, beam blasts, arrow volleys, spike fans, and falling bombs.
🏆 For the Daring: No-Damage Runs
Beat the final boss without taking a single hit to unlock the hidden secret boss. A "No Damage" badge shows on screen during the last fight, so you always know if
your perfect run is still alive.
