About
“Shadows is some of the most fun I’ve had with a stealth game in a decade” —PC Gamer
Play as Naoe, a quick-witted shinobi, and use light, sound, and shadows to evade detection. Infiltrate enemy strongholds with many parkour options including the new grappling hook, distract guards with shuriken or smoke bombs, and assassinate your targets with your Hidden Blade. As the samurai Yasuke, use silent bow takedowns or unleash devastating melee combos with your katana or naginata.
Switch between these two heroes to adapt your strategy and experience feudal Japan through two radically different approaches – stealth and strength, shadows and steel.

В этой игре нет внятного сюжета. Нет внятных механик. Стелс вроде как и хорош, а вроде бы и скриптованное угэ, непонятно
这游戏非常无聊,一模一样的玩法从头到尾,一点意思没有,bug还多,千万别买
Fun game if you like AC games. It's nothing revolutionary, you'll climb, you'll stab, etc. Prone is new and refreshing, why hasn't AC had prone?? It's awesome to crawl around, feels like Solid Snake bro. If you're not huge on the RPG stuff just enable one hit assassinations to always be on and you can literally play the game like old school ass creed. I don't get why people overly hate on these. Game looks gorgeous maxed out on my OLED, that alone is worth the adventure. Seasons changing is cool. I'd recommend picking it up on sale for sure.
我没游戏也能评测吗?
没玩过这么垃圾的死冯游戏,角色粘手粘脚,古坟又黑又难走,玩这游戏和吃答辩没区别
Favourite AC game so far. I have over 100 hours and still have plenty of main and side quests to do. The game is beautiful and storyline is good
반값 할인해서 구매했는데 cheapter 1 이후로 전혀 게임이 진행되지않고 뚝뚝 끊깁니다. 바탕화면 밖으로 자주 튕깁니다. 이런데도 환불 요청을 받아주질 않습니다. 최악입니다.
L垃圾
theres been lots of hate torwards ubisoft over the years about them breaking away from stealth tactics. well this game delivers. is it the best? no, but overall a great game. mixing stealth with up in your face combat. honestly, if your considering playing it. give it a shot its not a bad game at all story: 8.4 mechanics:6.5 might be a little difficult for some gameplay: 7.9 music: 7.3 cinematics: 9.2 replayability: 8.6 cost: 7/10 if you can get it for 30% off or more its worth it scenery: 9.4 overall: 8.3/10
sad what such a great series has devolved to
