Shadow Trick: Switch Between Parallel Dimensions to Vanquish Foes

Neutronized's latest platformer, Shadow Trick, is a charming, short, and simple game with a retro feel. Known for titles like Shovel Pirate, Slime Labs 3, Super Cat Tales, and Yokai Dungeon: Monster Games, Neutronized delivers another fun, free-to-play experience.

Shadow Trick Gameplay:

As a shadow-shifting wizard, you'll navigate a magical castle, solving puzzles by switching between your physical and shadow forms. This mechanic is used to bypass traps, evade enemies, and uncover hidden secrets.

The game features 24 levels across diverse biomes, each concealing three moon crystals. Collecting all 72 crystals requires defeating bosses without taking damage—a challenging feat given some particularly tricky adversaries, such as the disappearing-then-reappearing red ghost. Expect varied environments, including aquatic levels where shadow-form navigation is crucial, and encounters with unique aquatic boss characters.

Worth a Look?

Shadow Trick boasts appealing retro pixel art visuals, impressive environments, and catchy chiptune music. If you enjoy classic pixel art style games, it's definitely worth checking out on the Google Play Store.
