A fast-paced stealth platformer game
Ereban Shadow Legacy is a fast-paced stealth platformer where the player takes on the role of a character with mystical shadow powers. Through the use of these powers, along with high-tech gadgets, the player must avoid or kill enemies while the game’s over-arching plot unrolls.
In a similar fashion to games like Hitman, Ereban Shadow Legacy encourages the player to seek stealthy solutions to the problems presented. Although, like Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, it does not require the player to exclusively play in stealth mode.
Mythical powers and high-tech gadgets
In Ereban Shadow Legacy, the player takes control of a character named Ayana, who is the last descendant of a forgotten race. The player can combine mythical powers — such as Ayana’s Shadow Merge ability — with high-tech gadgets to move around the world unseen or sneak up on enemies and kill them. Ultimately, the player must uncover the truth about Ayana’s past.
Stealth and shadows
The core gameplay style of this game is stealth, meaning the player is encouraged to sneak around, avoid detection, and only enter conflict when no other options are available. The game world presents plenty of opportunities to hide in the shadows, while the powers and gadgets that the player can accumulate also make sneaking easier.
A detailed, distinctive game world
The game world features a great deal of detail. It is also rendered in a very distinctive art style that is somewhat cartoonish but maintains high-quality graphics. However, younger players and players who are sensitive to violence may find the combat and killing in this game a little off-putting.
