Great tactical stealth game, reminiscent of other classic isometric viewpoint games such as Desperados - Wanted dead or alive, Company of Heroes and the Commandos series and more recently Hard West.. If you liked the games i've mentioned then Shadow Tactics is a must buy. Even if you don't and just like tactical games its still worth adding to your library. Shadow Tactics has great gameplay mechanics, all set in Feudal Japans "Edo" era with Samurai's and Shinobi. Decent graphics with good attention to detail. Music is very fitting of the era with Asian stringed instruments playing out. Voice acting is typically over the top but fun, though I highly recommend turning on the Japanese voice option with subtitles. The game is really fun with many "oh cool" moments. Story is good with good narrative and fitting for the era. Definitely worth buying if you love tactical games with stealth elements. 8/10.
