Reviews:

PC Entertainment, February 1996

"The Little Samurai, a Japanese folktale in the Magic Tales series is a fully animated story that was created especially for the computer - and it shows. The rich graphics and animation will fool kids into thinking they're watching a Saturday-morning cartoon when the stories are in Read mode. In Play mode, the story stops at each screen, so that kids can uncover the multitude of clever hot spots on each page."

"This disk boasts excellent scores and delightful songs. Kids will be enchanted."
