Entertaining. Challenging.

The Back button on an Xbox controller is set to quick save. The pause menu lets you load from the last few quicksaves. You will fail frequently, but it is satisfying to kill enemies. The varied playable characters in each mission keeps things interesting. I like that there aren't any time limits. Many levels took 2-3 hours, taking things slow, being careful, and often killing more people than necessary. I didn't finish the game, but I got pretty close. Toward the end, it was slower and slower progress, as there was an increasing amount of enemies to evade. I also finally bought RimWorld and got obsessed with that. The sound is pretty good, although there were a few levels where a character kept repeating the same phrase, so I turned the volume way down. The game could be played easily without sound as well. There are visual cues for everything. I like that I could control the character movement with the Xbox controller stick. It adds some tension to have to actively control running and ducking vs click to move.

Reminds me of Tenchu

Loved the Tenchu series because of it's very rewarding stealth killing. This game brings in back for me in a totally new way while awaiting a new addition to Tenchu. Which I don't think will ever happen. I'm playing this in 2022 and it's totally worth it. The satisfaction you get from figuring out various different ways to tear apart the enemies fortifications is amazing. Great graphics. Though they can look a bit cartoon like at times. The vivid themes of each map more than make up for it. Each having their own style and look, it's never dull. The music is great, really sets the mood for Edo period. The keyboard controls where a bit strange at first. But I got used to them after a while without having to switch the key bindings. It can make for some tricky moments and awkward camera moments when you are not familiar with the surroundings. But this can be changed if someone chooses to do so. The game seems to progressively get harder level by level so you have to definitely get used to saving frequently. It's very punishing game but in a good way. Overall I'm very happy I purchased this game. It's the first game in a while that I have been binge playing to no end. I really hope Mimimi keeps up the good work and considers more additions or possibly games like this.

3.5 Star Stealth/Strategy/Puzzle Game

Here's what's good: the graphics (and art style), the voice acting, the puzzles, the gameplay (especially as you get further in), and its stability (no issues). Less than good is: the story (a bit thin and cliche), the load times (painfully long), the default keybinds (feels like a mess - though all of them can be remaped thankfully) and while multiple approaches to each map is valid there is a feeling of having to connect the dots and find the exact right guard to start with. Some may enjoy this, for me it was a bit of mix. Sometimes I didn't mind, at others it felt like a drag and I wished there was more consistent gameplay flow without needing to wait for vision cones to disappear and constantly reload a previous save to get past a section. Conclusion: there's a lot to be admired at how well polished and solid much of this game is. If there's another iteration of Shadow Tactics it could be a classic. With this initial entry you may end up with some grievances but overall it's hard to argue that it's not a worthwhile experience if stealth gameplay, strategy and puzzles are your thing. If you're on the fence wait for a sale and you'll more than likely be satisfied.

Excellent tactics game.

An outstanding Commandos-like tactics game which I completed in ca. 25 hours. Important for working dad's: great chunk play value as game supports quicksaves. I would love having some 5 more missions as the replay value is not really that great, but the missions themselves are varied in visual style, mission goals and mechanics which is absolutely great. The gameplay price value is excellent mind you, I just want more missions because I really liked the game itself. A small caveat is the lack of some technical polishing - the game itself works fine and looks stunning constantly, but little quirks annoy sometimes like when the game struggles to find "where can I drop this body off a cliff" trigger points. Verdict: if you played a single level of Commandos or Desperados games and it felt good - this is the game for you, do not hesitate.

What a game should be.

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun is a diamond in the sea of sh*t that is the PC game industry today. It is fun and reasonably challenging from start to finish. There are so many possibilities and the levels are masterfully crafted to provide myriad routes to victory. You can play without killing anyone or you can slaughter every enemy. So many memories and I've only played it through once (purchased on Steam and got it here in a bundle with KD: Deliverance). I will definitely play again at some point as this game has a lot of possibilities from a gameplay perspective. It truly is a throwback to days when games were made with love and care. Play with Japanese audio for full immersion. Also option for Japanese text but I'm not learned enough in the language to keep up. Gameplay: 9 Story: 7 Level Design: 9 Graphics: 9 Sound: 10 Voice Acting: 10 Polish: 10 Replay Value: 8 Enjoyment: 9 Verdict: Overall excellent in every aspect. You cannot go wrong with this one. Rare these days.
