- K návykovej, no stále zábavnejšej znovuhrateľnosti prispieva aj odomykanie nových postáv a kariet, plnenie rôznych výziev a hlavne túžba byť úplne dokonale a absolútne bezchybným. A to môže pokojne trvať aj desiatky hodín. Žiaľbohu - či v tomto prípade skôr chvalabohu.
kesty · Nov 28, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - While I appreciate that Shogun Showdown distills the roguelike experience down to its essence, the overall speed of play is too slow thanks to preparing attacks and dealing with facing during fights, and this pacing is a big problem for a roguelike since they’re built on frequent runs and repeat plays. Even so, there’s a lot to like here for fans of the theme, or for roguelike players wanting something a little different.
Eugene Sax · Oct 22, 2024 Reviewed on - With an addictive gameplay loop that's hard to put down, Shogun Showdown is a brilliant roguelike in a year full of them. Sleak pick-up-and-play battles and deep systems offers so much play time, as long as you don't mind dying a lot.
Joshua Thompson · Sep 30, 2024 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Shogun Showdown has one of the most focused designs I’ve recently encountered in the rogue-lite space. It is very easy to understand its movement and tile use mechanics, but it is very hard to master them and get through a location with minimal health losses. Still, there’s enough variety that it rarely feels repetitive. The lack of a proper narrative is only partially compensated for by the character and world design. Unlocks, handled via skills, can feel slow. But Shogun Showdown is impressive enough mechanically to satisfy any fan of its genre and has the potential to draw newcomers to it.
Cosmin Vasile · Sep 18, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - This wonderfully clever strategy roguelike demands your best, and it deserves to get it.
Robin Valentine · Sep 14, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Shogun Showdown is a cracking game that lures you in nicely with its simplicity but eventually becomes a rather complex beast with a lot of very well thought-out moving parts.
Sean Smith · Sep 13, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Overall then, Shogun Showdown is a very cool and addictive turn-based combat game that will test your tactical prowess. The variety of weapons, skills and enemies lends itself well to creating awesome moments in the heat of battle. You’ll constantly want to experiment as the roguelike elements bring new things to the table after death. It is slightly worrying that there are issues with a character, as well as concerns over the save system, but hopefully these problems are fixed in the near future. If you’re willing to accept death, there’s great satisfaction found in Shogun Showdown and you should definitely give it a go.
James Birks · Sep 13, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - Shogun Showdown combines the best parts from the Roguelike and Deck Builder genres into a brilliant Japanese release that will keep you on your toes around every corner.
Jay Claassen · Sep 07, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Shogun Showdown is an instant indie essential. A perfect little core of left-to-right puzzle-styled violence that plays like a sort of bloody rhythm game, and it makes for an endlessly addictive experience that's easy to pick up and lose hours to. There's enough progression in skills to keep it interesting over the long haul, and plenty of mixing and matching in your attack and special cards to ensure no two battles are ever the same. This is must-play stuff.
PJ O’Reilly · Sep 04, 2024 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Shogun Showdown é um roguelite de estratégia por turnos que definitivamente exigirá toda sua concentração para superar seus maiores desafios. A grande quantidade de armas e habilidades, além de uma ótima ambientação inspirada pela cultura japonesa, possibilitam que o jogo prenda sua antenção por muitas horas.
