![]() ![]() I like to think of it as a “popcorn ninja game.” Instead of dropping poisoned rice to kill guard dogs and trying to traverse the levels while making as little noise as possible, you’ll find yourself breaking on enemy’s neck after another, all the while avoiding the gaze of the ones around them. Unfortunately, this is one of the many design decisions that make Tenchu: Shadow Assassins a far more trial-and-error experience than the PS1 games. This isn’t the least bit logical as sometimes you’ll be standing right next to an enemy and still be safe because you’re in the “safe zone” the mist provides. Instead of sneaking around on rooftops, you’ll find yourself hiding in bushes and in areas covered by this black “mist.” As long as you’re in the mist, no one will be able to see you. Shadow Assassins also emphasizes ground-based stealth as opposed to that of the rooftop variety. Enemy AI is very iffy in that the bad guys seem oblivious to things like excessive noise - something the original Tenchu baddies relied on heavily to catch you in the act. Oddly enough, you’ll need to hold down the B button on the Wii remote if you want to run, and this is where the first of Shadow Assassins’s numerous design flaws start to show. Yes, you can push your analog stick as subtly as you like, but Rikimaru and Ayame will always walk at the same pace. You’ll notice this within a few seconds of booting up the first level as the complete lack of analog control for movement makes itself apparent. The soundtrack is amazing as well, and if you’re a fan of game OSTs, the in game music will keep you playing even when a level starts to get troublesome.ĭespite this, Shadow Assassins manages to create a bad first impression. Character models are detailed, textures are colourful and stylized but not cartoony, and the animation is top-notch. Since this is usually the first big question on everyone’s minds, Shadow Assassins looks great on Wii.
