1/3/2024 0 Comments Shadow warrior 2013 review![]() ![]() It may seem like the bad outnumbers the rad but Shadow Warrior 2013 is a fun ride as long as you’re not looking for the next blockbuster game. Aside from shooting explosive objects like cars and gasoline drums, there’s not much else you can do with your surroundings. There isn’t much interaction with the environment.There could’ve been a lot more weapons.On the casual difficulty setting it’s no big deal but it could become a problem playing on harder settings. The graphics aren’t the best considering it’s a 2013 release.The Vicera Cleanup Detail add-on is hilarious and costs nothing. Special moves aren’t to complicated and don’t take long to get used to.You will always have the katana and an endless supply of shurikens. Wang is able to partially heal himself, which makes it easier to survive between finding health packs.The cartoonish gore and physics are entertaining (if you’re into that).Leveling up doesn’t take long and skill trees aren’t overly complicated.The recently announced crossover weapons including: Saints Row IV’s Penetrator, The Walking Dead’s Ice Axe, Hotline Miami’s Katana and Serious Sam 3’s Sledgehammer.The more violent the kills, the more “Karma” you get which allows players to level up their powers faster. This level of ridiculous violence doesn’t go unrewarded either. Wang’s got the potential to dual wield guns, blow enemies back with a powerful shockwave attack and spin around with his sword, severing the heads from any bodies surrounding him. Lo Wang starts out with a katana and is able to level up in weapons and demon powers. RELATED: The 50 Best First Person Shooters Of All Time It's like if Saint's Row had a baby with the 1986 film, Big Trouble in Little China. But what the game does fits Shadow Warrior’s purpose perfectly. The plot has more gaping holes than a German adult film and the graphics aren’t on the bleeding edge. Yes, it sounds dumb as hell but Shadow Warrior isn't meant to be Academy Award material. It’s this debacle that pulls Wang (get it?) into a world of demonic bloodshed.ĭeveloper: Flying Wild Hog Publisher: Devolver Digital Platform: PC (buy it here) Price: $40 ✭✭✭✭✭✭✭✭✩✩ Score: 8/10 While Duke Nukem’s bee in the bonnet was his ship being destroyed by aliens, Lo Wang (get it?) has a beef stemming from a sword deal gone wrong. There’s over-the-top violence, crude humor and a main character who’s unable to let go of a grudge. Anyone who plays the first person shooter/slasher Shadow Warrior reboot will instantly be reminded of 1993’s Duke Nukem 3D. ![]()
