Neil writes: "Forget about the intricate visuals and destructive nature of other fighters, for all we need to worry about today is a bit of good old shadow boxing, as Shadow Fencer Theatre hits out onto Xbox One and PC."
Gareth writes: "I’ve always had a fear of the shadows. The idea of something following you until you die, always there, always present, always judging. For that reason, shadow puppet theatre is something I’ve always been a bit wary of. It’s the thought of a dark 2D world that has its own stories, myths and monsters all played out on a wall or a white sheet that has me concerned and fearful. So when I knew I was going to be playing a game that is totally focused around shadow puppetry, a chill went slowly down my spine. But I had no need to fear because the world of Shadow Fencer Theatre is a playful fun one."
Shadow Fencer Theatre is a quirky title, in more ways than one. Its aesthetics are truly charming, but the gameplay proves to be a bit too awkward for its own good.
Shadow Fencer Theatre proves that the art isn't dead. With QWOP-style controls and beautiful art, this one is a treat for the eyes.
This looks cool.
