What awaits you in Shadow Trick?
As the title suggests, you play as a wizard with the unique ability to transform into a shadow. This core mechanic is cleverly woven into puzzle-solving, requiring you to seamlessly switch between your physical and shadow forms to navigate treacherous environments, avoid deadly traps, and outsmart enemies.
Explore a magical castle brimming with diverse biomes, hidden dangers, and challenging bosses across 24 levels. Each level conceals three moon crystals; collecting all 72 crystals is crucial to unlocking the game's complete ending. Be warned, some bosses are notoriously tricky. The red ghost, for instance, might seem to vanish during attacks, only to reappear and strike unexpectedly.
Shadow Trick's environments are remarkably varied, from standard castle levels to aquatic stages where you must navigate as a shadow, encountering unusual and memorable fish bosses.
