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.

真的很好玩，强烈建议细细体验
影的指引系统是真差，然后攀爬的吸附也太强了
第一次玩 感觉还行
I only played for 2 hours before refunding but I have a list of reasons. Game starts out in combat like all the newer RPGs whatever. Then we switch to the girl with the worst voice acting ever, it is genuinely incomprehensible that a triple A game with a budget like this has voice acting THIS BAD. Okay we play the girl, we have a practice fight right after a whole ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ battle opening??? Whole part of her and her father escaping, girl dumbly decides to get the box back with a whole open gameplay stealth segment. Her dad dies right away I barley have established a connection and the word "Chichioya" is pissing me off from how much they spam it and with how bad the voice acting is. WHY AFTER ALL OF THIS do you spawn in another FLASHBACK to the father with a tutorial sword fight AGAIN, the pacing is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bad it makes no sense at all, you could just not make that a flashback and let us start on that???? Its the same cutscene that played like 30 minutes before TOO, so its FRESH IN MY MIND STILL????? Get to the open WORLD finally, cant climb ♥♥♥♥ without a grapple hook, slide off everything, forced to stick to the PATHS only really. GET TO THE HIDEOUT AND ITS A separate loading box with even worse dialogue and pacing. Everything feels so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ robotic with no emotion or stakes. I come back injured asf and the woman just goes "YOU MUST KILL EVERY LAST ONE" okay dude sure after I just got my ass beat 2 times whatever man. Refunded right before the 2 hour mark. I have played and loved every AC game BESIDES valhalla and odyssey, this is going to be the third one that I cannot even force myself to play from how bad the start is. This is the setting everyone begged for forever and they botched it so hard.
好玩，量大管饱的罐头，比黑旗重制好玩
Dont waste your money, game wont lunch because of ubisoft's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ servers. u need to click 100 times in order for it to open. Tried everything , disabled overlay , ran as administrator , ETC... Pay 30euros to get nothing.. Disgrace
这一作讲道理内容还是够多，就是主线剧情确实无脑又无聊，没有一点点波澜就是赶路找人然后杀，赶路找人说话然后原谅，主角莫名其妙激动，莫名其妙剧情杀，莫名其妙强制原谅。 最关键的是两位主角的故事线最终BOSS也太弱了，所有剧情里唯一战斗刺激点的只有黑十字二人组。 最后拿到圣者血也没个下文，好像就是直接田园归隐了，直接烂尾，感觉就是一点历史进程都没推动，不对世界产生任何影响，纯路边一条。
个人觉得剧情不错，前期有点类似于类魂吧需要点操作，其他的我个人感觉都没什么问题
бойова система та сюжет цікаві
敌人种类单一，景色单一，罐头完了
