Shadow Uprising

This is a sleeper hit. At first I thought it was Sairento in ancient times with robots. Nope. It is different. Think if Bionic Commando and Tenchu had a mentally challenged baby. This would be it in a good minimalist way of course. Not sure why it took me so long to even try it out. My only complaint is that I can't figure out how to run, instead of just walking

Pretty good Stealth game, simple mechanics that work well, maybe a bit too simplistic, but ive enjoyed it so far. Overall id say its an above average game, for the price its pretty decent (9 levels im currently at the 3rd one i think), so its not like its lacking levels, and they are not that small, and although linear, you have a few paths you can take. melee weapon feel very strong, but also super light? idk how to explain it, not bad, but could be better. I didnt feel the game gave me any cheap loses, levels are well designed and enemy placement is alright. On sale its a steal!

Shadow Uprising ist ein gelungenes Stealth Adventure für die virtuelle Realität. Die Waffenauswahl und vor allem die perfekte eingängige VR Steuerung lassen einen die eintönige Grafik vergessen.

While short, this game is worth every penny. And if you play to the end you are rewarded with the most satisfying VR boss fight that I have seen.

Thoroughly enjoyable. Stealth, with some vigorous exercise (at the end), Very hard.

The game itself is very short (completed in 2 sessions total of 1,5 hr) but at a cheap price its a good short fun. Most of my problems came form playing with 1 base station, otherwise didn't encounter any bugs. + Astonishingly quick load times between level + Simple gameplay + Some variant in levels + Gives out a vibe like early 90' / 00' games (in terms of simplicity) + The art style reminds me of XIII - Only 2 main types of enemies (shooters, drone) - Short levels - throwing stuff is mostly inaccurate and hard to aim

Cool concept of stealth-focused ninja game dragged down by boring and repetitive level design and overall lack of polish. Pros: + There were some cool moments with hookshot mid-air assassinations + Final boss fight was surprisingly good, although it felt more like something from Windlands 2, than a stealth game Cons: - Levels feel procedurally generated: they are basic and full of copy-pasted parts. Exploring such environments is very boring while bonus weapons are only unlocked through exploration - Movement lacks flow: any acceleration from hookshot is immediately lost once you touch the ground. And after colliding with minor objects mid-air you can get stuck until you release the hook - There are no real shadows so stealth is restricted to avoiding enemy vision cones and hiding in dedicated spots. And those spots are highlighted with bright yellow outlines that break any possible immersion - Enemy AI does not notice hookshots or dead allies right in front of it. And losing combat state is very inconsistent: it may happen immediately when you step behind the corner or not happen at all after you moved few buildings away - Main story is told via text in the bottom of the screen with no voice-over, it's very easy to miss parts of it during combat or movement

This is a nice new indie game and is definitely worth the 6,59€ they are charging for it. The locations are a little repetetive, but the gaming mechanic is fresh and modern. The final level was crazy even for a seasoned VR player :D Sometimes it's not immediatelly clear what you're supposed to do, there is a tutorial system in the first levels, but in the boss fight, you have to figure it out all by yourself. Not necesarily a bad thing - but this game expects you to handle your stuff ;) My stats say I have finished this in little over 4 hours and that was while streaming it and reacting to chat.

Fun Game! get it on sale..!

I've had this game in my Library for months and never played it, I really don't know why. This game is really great, very smooth nicely done controls, you can really play like a Ninja (reminds me a littel like the old Tenchu game for Playstation 1). This game is a solid 8/10 and I would everybody who owns a VR Headset recommend it to play this. The Soundtrack is great as well, nice work to the producer. :) I really feel bad that I bought this on sale for a few €. If i knew how great this game is, I would have payed the full price for it. I hope the Developers are still active and will work on something more to play. :) For this money it's definitely worth it, eventhough it's a little short. Again, just buy it!
