It could have benefited greatly by giving them more unique abilities between the two. The downside to this is that both the characters you can choose to play as have the exact same move sets. The game is so fun from the start with unique abilities at your disposal. Your abilities are all unlocked from the start, and it’s a bit shorter. This is one area where I prefer Nightfall. Fortunately, it doesn’t occur mid-game when you’re sneaking past all the guards.
Every time the game attempts to load something, so say after you die or enter a new area, there are about five seconds where it looks like the game is about to crash.

While you can find scrolls to upgrade and unlock new abilities, adding some diversity to the game play, it really isn’t enough to salvage the replay value for most people I would imagine. That’s basically it for the approximately 10 hours it will take you to complete the game.
The game will have you finding something, going somewhere, or disabling something. You’re basically doing the exact same few tasks in environments that look just about the same. Unfortunately, this kind of makes the game bog you down after a while. Which is fair, as this isn’t meant to be that kind of game. Fighting groups of enemies at once, directly at least, is impossible. The guards use slashes of light that travel through air to kill you in one hit. If you want to survive direct conflicts with guards, you need to be fast or flee. If you’re looking for a game like Dishonored where you can fight your way to victory if caught, this game may not be for you.
Yeah sure, you technically passed, but you can do better. This assists the game’s replay value by giving players a goal to beat. The unlock menu is also on the pause menu, it isn’t explained very well where to find it, so try and remember that if you plan on playing.īased on how stealthy you are, you’re also scored and graded. To do so you have to find scrolls hidden throughout each level. You will unlock new abilities as you continue that will make avoiding and disposing of guards easier. You can also assassinate guards from behind or above, which assists in your ability to move freely. This will prevent you from being able to use your various abilities. If you come to close to a powerful light source, it will drain your shadow essence. You can hop from shadow to shadow or create shadows away from you to help your movement. The gameplay, when it comes to stealth mechanics, is near perfect. Getting a Ninja game that is heavily stealth based, instead of being a super high-action game, is pretty rare. Although it is fairly cliché, and the writing for dialogue is mediocre, it is good enough to get you from point A to point B. The story is a nice telling of light versus dark, and the cycle of vengeance. This slowly reveals more about the overall plot. You do this by sneaking through multiple levels, either avoiding the many guards and hazards that exist or by eliminating them one by one.Īs you go through the story, you receive flashbacks of Yamiko’s past every time you recover a talisman.

Your goal is to collect all Yamkio’s talismans in order to free her and the Empress. As an Aragami, you are a spirit of vengeance. You are a spirit, summoned by a trapped woman known as Yamiko. Instead of playing as Aragami, you instead play as Hyo or Shinobu.
It also comes packaged with Aragami: Nightfall, a prequel of the story set just before the events of the base game. The game is a third-person, stealth-based action adventure. In Aragami, you take the role of an undead spirit of the same name.
