Shadow Samurai Warrior is a third-person action-adventure about a bloody conflict, the participants of which are a lone protagonist armed with a katana and a gang of cruel thugs who have occupied the native village of our brave man. Actually, the main tasks of this amazing game follow from the prehistory – moving through the streets of a multi-tiered Chinese village, dealing with numerous enemies, leaving behind only a bloody trail and stacks of defeated opponents.
After starting Shadow Samurai Warrior and skimming through the introductory animations, without any training, the character is immediately faced in a round arena with enemies attacking from all sides. The protagonist has many years behind him, spent in the school of hand-to-hand combat, so he will not encounter any special problems at the first stages, since the enemies are weak, and the character works skillfully and tirelessly with a katana. But with the transition to the next tier, everything changes – opponents are now armed with long peaks, and to destroy each of them, you will need to carry out several combined techniques at once.
The gamer will interact with the novelty Shadow Samurai Warrior with a virtual joystick and three buttons, two of which are responsible for katana strikes, and the third for a swift somersault. Having finished with one enemy, the character automatically switches to the next opponent, so all the player needs is to quickly tap on the active buttons. And only occasionally, when moving to a new tier or to open a massive gate, you need to use a special gear. Cherry blossoms, gently falling leaves, spinning windmill blades, Chinese lanterns and wooden huts of ordinary peasants – the graphics and style are fascinating, and the quality of workmanship can be given a solid five!
