The rainworm continues to feel Shai-hulood and today I want to try to tell you about one game.
Yes, this is Shadow Fight . Mobile game that goes into the browser world by its roots. The times of the Games in VKontakte, when the sensory phones only began to appear, but heavier than a colorful snake or building houses, he poetry could not pull anything. The gameplay is uncomplicated: you’ll buy energy, choose the enemy, beat until the end of the opponent’s health strip or your. Then collect coins, pump the character. Do not want to collect coins for a long time – Hello Donat. In general, this is another time-killer that could be launched at work in the office if the system administrator did not block social.net. Or at home, while you are preparing for the lessons/session/defense of the diploma (emphasize the necessary).
Then the time came for sensory phones. Really cool games like Mass Effect Infiltor or Dead Space have climbed . But they were quickly replaced by freefriends, which the player simply took away several conditional units of time and all. And in 2013 a mobile game was released Shadow Fight 2.
Until this moment, not it had to really get a long time, so the plot chapters also did not go out quickly
Yes, the game reached mobile platforms and offered the same gameplay as in the browser. True, instead of fighters of their friends, it was necessary to capitalize virtual boobs. There was also the opportunity to dress your hero, equip him with weapons, all sorts of magic to choose. Frankly, I missed the browser game, so I don’t know much with mechanics. But the second part was even passed.
The game has a plot mode. You play for the shadow of a man who was a powerful fighter, philanthropist, playboy and so on. And at some point he got bored and decided to find a worthy enemy for himself. Went to the ancient gates of the shadows and opened them. And here it rushed. The demons got out, took the forces from this person. The game calls us a shadow. Simple and tasteful. Of course we have a wise teacher who will teach everything that he knows, he will give advice and direct on the path. And also traders, satellites and just fleeting characters.
The game gameplay is tied to the standard passage of non-uk-casinos.co.uk mobs on the way to the boss. We defeat the opponents, defeat the boss, pass into the new chapter. Repeat. And so several times. At the end of the boss of all bosses. We defeat him – the end of the game. But not everything is so simple. Opponents have weapons, there are skills and a stretched strip of health. If we do not pump our equipment, then we will not go beyond the first enemy. And there is also energy. If you want to play more more than 5 times? Knock. The opponents are too strong? Knock. Cool weapons appeared in the store? Well, you know what to do.
In general, the game is not bad. It was possible to spend a few tens of minutes a day. And it was also possible to set fire to a chair under you (sofa, chair, on what you are sitting there). But the game differs from clones of clones of all kinds of farms and captivated.
Then, of course, the third part came out. For mobile phones, a version of the Donatus appeared and was sold at a fixed price. And even at Nintendo Switch.
But just recently, the Russian publisher of Hobby World announced the release of the Shadow Fight board game. The characters from the second part are taken as the basis. But only these are already defeated demons. The game even has a semblance of the plot:
Titan, the formidable conqueror of the worlds and ruler of the universe Shadow Fight, was defeated. And the gates of the shadows, albeit for a short while, but were closed. Now that the throne is again free, the former Tiranian minions gather around it to take his place. Twelve demons from different worlds will collide in a fierce battle, which will determine the fate of the universe. Each of the fighters wants to put on a crown, but it will only belong to one.”
From the booklet rules to the game
A serious statement – you need to check. Based on the rules, the game will be filler for 20 minutes. In the hands of players (and players from 2 to 4 people) will be decks of cards with actions. Players will choose a demon of two first player. Each demon has its own unique perk, which can be used once for a battle. And there are also passive properties – they will already be constant. Demons have energy maps, and in general access there are tactics cards in the amount of seven pieces. The battlefield is opened, reception maps are issued and players begin the game. Perform actions, check whether the character has ended with the energy. The last player who stayed with a living demon won.
Overall, it is quite a lesson. The game that was conceived as the killer of your time passed to the table and is engaged in exactly the same. If there is a need for a toy that does not take much time, space and has no voluminous rules, and you also like the world of Shadow Fight, then this is a good choice. Well, in my modest look, of course. I will most likely miss the game. But if suddenly someone will be interested, then I have not spent my time in vain.
Thank you for your attention, maybe I’ll be back soon with some other story about board games.
The most funny shadow fauth is that this is really fighting wiper. That is, you are not just stupidly hollowing the screen and see how your character jumps and performs all sorts of things, as in the same Mortache or Industis, and you really need to do them yourself, as in real fighting. And when you finally win the next local boss, which just tore you on rags, and you also take his clothes and weapons, you experience a real kaat.
Thanks for the nostalgia!
I remember, I could not stand it once, and downloaded the hacked version of the game with money and endless energy. But even with such unclean bonuses, I still spent a lot of time on the game, and I still know how to fight here
I remember how in my school years I played in the first “Battle with a Shadow” in VK, there was a glorious time 🙂
But I could not love the mobile version, all the same, the control on the keyboard was more familiar and more convenient for me than the “joystick” on the sensor.
