In my demo, this involves freeing wizened sharpshooter Takuma from a ship’s brig by relying on his pet tanuki, Kuma, to distract guards while he hobbles along. Nothing about Shadow Tactics is rushed.Īiko’s Choice adds three new missions and three playable ‘interludes’, which are shorter narrative skits that hinge a single character’s abilities and help set the scene for the larger levels. It feels like a DLC package that should have been released closer to the original, but I’m not going to drag developers Mimimi for tardiness - after all, this is a game where it takes me upwards of three hours to creep around a single map. A standalone title, but one that slots into the original game’s main story. Aiko’s Choice is a miniature campaign extension to 2016’s real-time tactics wonder.
In true Shadow Tactics fashion, here’s an expansion no one saw coming.
