Description
Lo Wang. The very name strikes fear in fortune cookie-eating Mafia men and small children everywhere. He is the reason most ninja wannabees have sold off their combat sandals to the local pawn shop. Lo Wang is Shadow Warrior. #1 Assassin. #1 Yakuza abuser. #1 Freak fragger. #1 Mutant mutilator. #1 Reason to be scared of the dark. Enter the Land of the Rising Sun and spread ninja charisma like napalm for there are undead sumos to be uzied, samurai to be shurikened, and bulldozers to be boarded. Don’t forget to goose the geishas and make sure your dinghy isn’t hanging out...

From the creators of Duke Nukem 3D, comes the ever-explosive, forever controversial Shadow Warrior, a first-person shooter that takes the Build engine to its extreme limits. Offering a destructible environment with a bevy of weapons--ranging from razor-sharp katanas, 4-barrel shotguns, and even your own fists--Shadow Warrior is sure to satisfy the hunger for some Lo Wang and not leave you hungry an hour later.
  • Shadow Warrior Complete includes the original Shadow Warrior and two expansions: Wanton Destruction and Twin Dragon.
  • Drivable vehicles smash through walls, crush enemies, and give you new explosive firepower!
  • Use a powerful arsenal of weapons, including throwing stars, uzis, and 4-barrel shotguns to take on the most outrageous collection of enemies ever created.
  • Hand to Face combat mode lets you kick butt and slice 'n' dice in true ninja fashion.

A Classic No Matter How you Slice it

One of the best shooters the build engine has to offer. The raunchy, one-note humor might not be your cup of tea, but the level design is just amazing. It's pretty much Duke 3.5D. They really don't make shooters like this anymore. Weapons sound great, music is forgettable. The cutscenes are funny for the wrong reasons. The expansions are worth your time but are certainly a step down from the main game. You can buy the Redux edition for a few bucks if you don't want to screw around with mods, but this version can be just as good.

Great Classic!

One of the best games of my youth. I wouldn't mind if more of them were made on build engine nowadays. I love the design of expansion pack levels - especially the one on the plane. Difficulty level is also very well balanced. There are some minor freezes and crashes, but since this is a DOS version, it's really not a big deal. Especially when it's for free.

One of my favorite shooter games

Ahh, Shadow Warrior, one of my favorite 1st person shooters. I think I only had the shareware version as a teenager but I played it over and over again. I also liked Duke Nukem 3D but the ninja setting of Shadow Warrior was even more my cup of tea. How revolutionary it felt to slice enemies with a sword! Imagine, that was a new thing in a game like this. Anyway, this was the first game I got to my new Linux system. It worked really well and I played through the original game plus the expansions. I have to say the Wanton Destruction and Twin Dragon episodes weren't as good as the original game, since the levels were more individual. (I liked how the original levels seem to pick up where previous one ended. That gave a nice feeling of journey.) There is of course some tasteless humor that someone might dislike. I didn't mind it, but I was overall more in for the action. The controls, weapons, and occasional vehicles just feel very satisfying. Since the classic version is free now, check it out if you want some action! (and if you like it but would like better graphics, then maybe try the redux version. I haven't tried that one yet.)
