'''[[Twin Blades']]'' is a simple beat 'em up originally released as an iPhone app game and shortly after as an Xbox Live Indie game.
 
There is no real plot other than what is implied by the action: [[Zombie Apocalypse|A bunch of dead guys are attacking]] and [[Naughty Nuns|one rather suggestively-dressed nun]] [[Action Girl|with a scythe in one hand and a magical gun in the other]] is straight-up kicking their asses. For 31 days straight.
 
It's simple and the balance is a little off (so far), but it's fun, and the action gets quite intense as the zombie hordes choke the screen. For one buck (on the iPhone) or three (on the Xbox), it's a fine way to whittle away the time.

-----
This game has examples of:
 
{{tropelist}}
* [[Action Dress Rip]]: The heroine's skirt has an extraordinarily high cut to allow for easier movement. [[Blatant Lies|Seriously, there's no other motive for her to be flashing that much leg.]]
* [[Beauty Is Never Tarnished]]: When slain, the heroine simply slumps to her knees and collapses, as if exhausted. Contrast what happens to everything she fights against...
Line 24 ⟶ 22:
** [[Sorting Algorithm of Weapon Effectiveness|A simple pistol.]]
** [[More Dakka|A machine gun.]]
** [[Kill It Withwith Fire|A flamethrower.]]
** [[Freeze Ray|A freeze ray.]]
** [[Stuff Blowing Up|A grenade launcher.]]
** [[Wave Motion Gun|A beam of holy light]] nicknamed [[Nuke 'Em|the nuke.]]
* [[Naughty Nuns]]: Hey, why not?
* [[Nintendo Hard]]: The game starts off easy, and then the ambulatory corpses just keep on rising... it doesn't help that you'll be fully upgraded long before you reach the final day, and they keep getting tougher.
* [[Non -Indicative Name]]: The heroine has one blade and one gun. The subtitle, "Reaping Vanguard," is more accurate.
* [[Nun -Too -Holy]]: The heroine is a nun in a red, high-cut habit with a plunging neckline who kills zombies for... some reason.
* [[Oh Crap]]: What you'll be saying as zombies start emerging by the dozen in later days.
* [[Porn Without Plot]]: Plot? Ehhh... we'll patch it in later. (Due for the end of February, as it happens.)
