    The freedom and stealth-related pieces of gameplay are the best aspects of the game, together with the storyline. Where the title disappoints is the lack of decent AI and a camera that shines in being frustrating. Read more

    • Freedom during missions, Stealth is quite fun
    • Frustrating Camera, Bad AI, Disappointing graphics

    Sadly, the game world’s continued need for an improvement on Tenchu remains unfulfilled, and Shinobido’s attempts to reinvent that which has gone before rather than strive to create something more progressive only Read more

    • Great soundtrack with emotive moods swings., Varied and bloody positional close-quarter stealth kills, More stealthy ninja death!

  1. Shinobido or Shinobidon't?

    It looks like Tenchu, doesn't it? It isn't though - it's Shinobido, a game from the makers of the criminally underrated Way of the Samurai series. Read more

    • Graphics all look pretty authentic, Some decent level Design, Good music
    • Not as good as Tenchu, graphics are a bit grey, gameplay isn't very satisfactory
