Stealth Through Shadows: Embark on a Retro Platforming Adventure

Neutronized's latest platformer, Shadow Trick, is a charming, bite-sized adventure. The developers behind hits like Shovel Pirate, Slime Labs 3, Super Cat Tales, and Yokai Dungeon: Monster Games deliver another delightful title. Shadow Trick retains Neutronized's signature style: short, fun, cute, and simple, all wrapped in a retro 16-bit pixel art aesthetic. Best of all, it's free-to-play.

Shadow Trick Gameplay:

As the title suggests, you play as a wizard with the unique ability to transform into a shadow. This core mechanic drives the puzzle-solving gameplay. Switching between your physical and shadow forms is crucial to uncovering secrets, bypassing obstacles, and evading enemies.

The game unfolds within a magical castle, teeming with diverse biomes, hidden hazards, and challenging bosses. Across 24 levels, you'll hunt for three moon crystals per level, essential for unlocking the complete ending. Mastering the game requires skillful boss battles, demanding flawless victories to collect all 72 crystals. Expect tricky encounters; for instance, the red ghost's ability to vanish and reappear adds a layer of strategic depth.

Shadow Trick boasts diverse environments. Expect aquatic levels where shadow form is necessary for navigation, and unique aquatic boss encounters.

Worth a Look?

Fans of retro pixel art will appreciate Shadow Trick's impressive visuals and charming chiptune soundtrack. If this sounds appealing, download it from the Google Play Store.
