I have mixed feelings. It has potential and the ideas are good, it’s very easy to play, but none of the issues mentioned in the comments below have been fixed, so it feels abandoned, even though those comments were written years ago… So, much to my regret, I don’t think I could recommend it. In my case, I’ll try to fix and modify certain instructions to enjoy the experience as much as possible.
In my humble opinion, reading Sacred Forge helps you better understand the original foundation of the Single Samurai system, which makes it easier to balance the game with more awareness.
I May have slightly messed up my math when making this game. Will be fixing that very soon. Thank you for telling me, I don't think I would have noticed otherwise.

On page 6, "For every 5 and 6 rolled, add 1 to Training. Then subtract 1 from Training." I'm pretty sure that's a typo. What's supposed to be there?
On page 8 is the same for Materials. I believe you substract at the end from the total, rising the stakes a little bit.
Still the stakes are very low with 16 conviction, it's much more exciting rolling just 10 dice.
I have a question.
I have only 3 in-game weeks.
I start with 16 Conviction.
I can spend Conviction up to 5 per week.
So I can only use 15 Convictions in 3 weeks.
...yes
