==Gameplay== {{Expand section|date=May 2015}} [[File:Daikatana gameplay.jpg|thumb|left|Gameplay of ''Daikatana'']] ''Daikatana'' is composed of 24 [[Level (video gaming)|levels]] (18 in the console versions) divided into four episodes, with a varying number of levels per episode. Each episode represents a different location and time period: Japan in 2455 AD, [[ancient Greece]] in 1200 BC, the [[Dark Ages (historiography)|Dark Ages]] in Norway in 560 AD, and near-future [[San Francisco]] in 2030 AD. One element that ''Daikatana'' stressed was the important role of Hiro Miyamoto's two sidekicks, Mikiko Ebihara (Bread) and Superfly Johnson. The death of either sidekick resulted in failing the level, and their assistance was required to complete certain puzzles. Due to poor [[Game artificial intelligence|AI]] implementation, the sidekicks, who were one of the game's selling points, became a focus of criticism.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.gamesradar.com/the-top-7-pr-disasters/?page=5 |title=The Top 7...
