Switch Between You And Your Shadow To Defeat Enemies In New Retro-Style Platformer Shadow Trick

Neutronized's latest platformer, Shadow Trick, is a charming, bite-sized adventure. The developers, known for titles like Shovel Pirate, Slime Labs 3, Super Cat Tales, and Yokai Dungeon: Monster Games, deliver another fun, free-to-play experience. Shadow Trick boasts a retro 16-bit pixel art style, creating a visually appealing and nostalgic atmosphere.

Gameplay:

Collecting all 72 crystals requires flawless boss battles, a feat made challenging by cunning enemies like the disappearing-then-reappearing red ghost. Environments range from standard platforming challenges to aquatic levels requiring shadow-form navigation and unique underwater boss encounters.
