Game: Shadow Fight 2

Having no prior experience with the first game, I went in to Shadow Fight 2 totally blind. Which, I suppose, kind of makes sense. You know… because everyone's a shadow. But while I was extremely impressed with the fluidity of the animations and the detail on the character silhouettes, that all quickly gave way to frustration as I found myself fighting the controls more than my opponents.When the nameless protagonist is somehow reduced to nothing more than a mere (and literal) shadow of his former self, he'll have to fight to get it back. And I mean really fight for it. All sorts of demons and henchmen stand is his way, and none of them want to make it easy. Fortunately he's a reasonably proficient fighter - at least, he's getting there. That's where you come in.Shadow Fight 2 plays much like a traditional fighting game, only combat is a bit slower and there's steady character progression. As you beat down other shadows, or even get beat down yourself, you'll earn money that can be spent on better equipment. Better equipment will give you better odds against tougher opponents, which will in-turn allow you to earn even more money for even better gear.
