I wasn’t sure if it was because she didn’t approve of my killing and felt uncomfortable being with me, or whether it was just bad AI. There were countless times I tried to get Lily to follow me, or at least keep up with me and she had crawled up in a ball in the middle nowhere. If the both of you don’t get to the door at the end of the level, you can’t go forward. It does little more than make you feel bad for knifing every Tom, Dick, and Harry between the shoulder blades, and it never really affects the way you play. After your first interaction with Lily, you embark on a journey together where everything you do impacts poor Lily’s perception of you. Along the way, she bumps into Lily, a small orphan girl about to be reprimanded by a couple of guards for stealing an apple. The titular Shadwen is a female assassin on her way to kill the king. Unfortunately, the dreary environment, dreadful AI, and repetitive action drown out the nifty time manipulation mechanic and ruin your enjoyment of something that could have been so much more. ![]() The physics, artwork, and ideas at its core should make you scream with delight because they do something rarely done: they push the boundaries. if you like these videos thumbs up, if you hate them then thumbs them down and add comment about how awful was watching them.Shadwen is a game you want to love, but no matter how hard you try you can’t. I do not like when others do this but they say it works so. Little note about technical condition of game: it works awesome under Windows (videos recorded on Windows on resolution 2560x1400, very high detail and just fxaa antialiasing) and on Linux Shadwen is one of the best performing games in my steam library, works a lot better than Trine 3. In the meantime, before videos will become publicly available just go to my channel and subscribe it to become one of first viewers of these videos: Do not forget to thumbs up my videos (or thumbs down if you dislike them). Unless you are some guy who would prefer to kill a child instead of helping to it :Pĭo not watch my videos, just buy the game and enjoy it by yourself, experience it, but if you want to watch it before buying and spoil yourself a lot of fun, it is up to you. Yes, game is worth its full price and i recommend it to anyone who is missing decent stealth games. Despite game mechanics it was still challenging and satisfying to play every level in this game. I'm very pleased with this game and time spent with it was amazing. Back on topic: is Shadwen worth 17usd (14.55usd on release)? IMO this is very unique game, mixing together few so different gameplay mechanics and unusuall for stealth games story telling. Is the game worth to buy? I have received access to the game before release, i may be known (or may not :P) to some players who have been playing Trine series, all this may make you to not trust to my opinion, and you are totally right, under normal conditions i wouldn't trust such guy as me, but decision if to trust me or not is up to you. Lily is not just "useless obstacle" as many people were claiming after playing demos, she is more important than you can imagine. Game has interesting story explaining why do we travel with Lily. Final version of the game offers much more than what you have seen so far. What i can say about game without breaking promise given to Frozenbyte? Pre-alpha and beta demos were very much like tech demos of this what we can play in final release. They are uploaded already and just waiting for Shadwen release. Videos will be available to watch since moment of release of Shadwen. On this playlist you can watch stealth playthrough: As i already mentioned, i finished the game twice: stealth way and killing them all way. While playing i decided to be recording videos of my gameplay. I think i fulfilled this condition and didn't reveal anything about final version of the game. ![]() I received pre-release access to the game under condition of not posting any info about it before release. This gave me advantage to complete the game twice and also to perform some tests of it. I'm one of few very lucky people who had access to final version of the game before release.
