Once he arrives at his destination, an enormous Japanese residence in the countryside, Wang is quickly set upon by the sword owner's bodyguards. Playing the new console version, controls are sharp and sensibly distributed across the pad. "You got Wang." We discover he's on his way to buy an ancient sword called the Nobitsura Kage for his employer, Orochi Zilla, and if it's not for sale then he's to obtain it anyway. The game's star may have inherited his dumb name from 3D Realms, but this Lo Wang is immediately likable as you meet him speeding along a forest highway singing along to "You Got The Touch" by Stan Bush. Shadow Warrior is a game of simple pleasures - bad jokes, gorgeous graphics, florid decapitations - and as long as you don't expect too much from it, you are unlikely to be disappointed.
If you ever looked at the top-down map of a Doom level and marvelled at its intricacies, you will probably enjoy Shadow Warrior.Īctually, you will probably enjoy it anyway, because even if this cartographical nostalgia isn't doing it for you, there's plenty more to like, if not admire. Each chapter is a labyrinthine sprawl of arenas, locked doors and secret areas. Remember key cards? Pulling levers to lower water levels? Magically sealed doors? It's all here. One can imagine that it was once wielded by a warrior most brave, earning the cheers of the young wherever it swept, even unto The Chasm itself.There are a lot of things I like about Shadow Warrior, Flying Wild Hog's modern reimagining of 3D Realms' ageing, racially insensitive first-person shooter, but I think the thing I like most is the level design, which is pure 90s.
The long years have worn the edge of the spear-point away, but it still looks quite ominous nonetheless.
It was lost amid the ancient battlefield five hundred years ago. One of the six lost offerings scattered throughout The Chasm. More Information on the Warrior's Spear Inventory Information Warrior's Spear
