Thankfully, the first level is a merciful introduction, with plentiful health drops, relatively weak enemies, and lots of checkpoints.
Shadow starts the game quite weak, having simple jumping, slashing, and running capabilities. As you find the souls of your fallen comrades and discover records of the city's destruction and the lunatic doctor's experiments, you learn of a backstory far more interesting and tragic than a simple “mad scientist gone rogue” yarn. It's a simple premise, but Cyber Shadow's story has a complexity that reveals itself as you progress. A mad scientist is on the rampage, having fashioned an army of robotic supersoldiers in a crazed quest to revive the dead, and it's up to you to foil his ambitions.
Enter Cyber Shadow, a game that delivers everything above, especially the difficulty.Ĭyber Shadow puts you in the role of the titular Shadow, a cyborg ninja awakened from stasis in the ruins of a massive city. Knowing that, you'd likely expect a retro-throwback 2D platformer starring a cyborg ninja to be a tough test of your skills. You wouldn't be wrong in the long history of ninja-themed games, a lot of the standout titles are known for the formidable challenges they present. Odds are, however, that you also associate video game ninjas with games that are really, really hard. What do you associate with the term "ninja game"? Perhaps you think of speedy action and superhuman agility, crazy character maneuvers, intense swordplay, or sneaky stealth.
