There are also four challenging boss fights that you’ll need to best to progress in the game. There are more than 40 levels, and each stage has a different layout, naturally, and you must go from the start to the ending point while getting rid of all of the enemies that stand in your way. The Story will take you through the campaign, which has a pretty simple enough story and you’ll traverse through different stages on a map until you finally restore balance in the world. In Shadow Blade: Reload, there are two game modes: Story and Challenges. I mean, it’s ninjas - what did you expect, rainbows and sunshine?
Sound effects are a bit “bloody” as you slice up your foes, but that just adds to the charm of the game. The ambient soundtrack is captivating and fits in perfectly with the theme, making you feel drawn into the world. Animations in the game are smooth and fluid, with no lag on my iPhone 6s Plus. Shadow Blade: Reload also doesn’t skimp out on the textures, so everything is about as realistic as you’d expect from a detailed graphic novel.

The environments are vast and full of small details, and the colors in the game are a nice mix of dark and gloomy and rich, vibrant hues, depending on where you are. It has a classic graphic novel art style to it, which just adds to the overall charm of the title.

The Google Play Store listing states that the game is an “unreleased app” (sort of like Early Access on Steam games) and “may be unstable,” although with its official release less than a week away there is a good chance that players won’t encounter many major bugs or issues, if any at all.Visually, Shadow Blade: Reload is stunning. That is without counting the countless secrets hidden within each stage, that only the most able ninjas will get to discover.Īlthough Shadow Blade: Reload has not been officially released on Google Play, it is currently available to purchase for $4.99. And if you’re not the level-building type, Shadow Warrior: Reload includes two additional difficulty levels, Hardcore and Master Class, to make an already-challenging game even harder. The game includes a level editor, so creative players can come up with their own stages and share them with friends. Leaping between rooftops and hacking down baddies isn’t all the game is about though. As Kuro, players must run, leap, and even wall climb from one end of a stage to the other, while avoiding traps and dispatching enemies-this can be done stealthily, like a true ninja, or players can go in “swords blazing” and hack-and-slash-or shuriken-their way past gun-toting guards and agile swordsmen, among other foes. Shadow Blade: Reload is a fast-paced side-scrolling platformer in the vein of Shinobi, but with a visual style that looks like a combination of the Shadow Warrior reboot and near-future RPG Shadowrun Returns.
