Shadow Hunter might look like a 2D retro pixel classical RPG... but it isn't. It's a "nonogram" style Minesweeper deduction game with some lightweight RPG veneer slapped on it. Instead of just clicking on the puzzle grid to clear tiles, you have to walk around. When you walk near a trapped square, you get a hint and must decide what approach to use. Worse than Minesweeper, the badly designed game often forces you to make 50/50 or worse choices, win or die, and they also provide a "food" resource that runs down with each move you make, so you have to be economical with your guesswork. Those features bolted onto Minesweeper aren't making gaming better, they're making Minesweeper worse. Of course the questionable decisions in terms of game concept are married to the usual gamut of technical problems. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result.

Игра Shadow Hunter – это захватывающий экшен-платформер с элементами RPG, который увлек меня с первых минут. Мрачная атмосфера, отлично прорисованные локации и стильный визуальный дизайн создают неповторимую атмосферу темного фэнтези. Боевая система динамичная и требует от игрока хорошей реакции и умения комбинировать удары. Разнообразие оружия и способностей позволяет создать уникальный стиль боя, подходящий под разные ситуации. Прокачка персонажа и получение новых навыков мотивируют к исследованию мира и сражению с сильными противниками. Сюжет не самый оригинальный, но вполне интересный и держит в напряжении благодаря хорошо прописанным персонажам и неожиданным сюжетным поворотам. Боссы представляют собой серьезное испытание, требующее тактического подхода и грамотного использования всех доступных ресурсов. К минусам можно отнести некоторую однообразность локаций и grind ради улучшения экипировки, но в целом игра оставляет положительное впечатление. Рекомендую всем любителям хардкорных платформеров и темного фэнтези.
