Shadow Fight 2 is a two-dimension role-playing fighting game, and here you play as a shadow warrior that must defeat all the enemies wanting to stop you. The storyline of this game is like something taken out of a movie. You are a top-notch samurai who has to face countless enemies. As you defeat your opponents one by one, you become arrogant, and you end up destroying the seal of Gate of Shadows. Because of your wrongdoing, the worst enemies of the world are now free, making them a serious threat to humanity.
Your sole mission is to fight and defeat the evil spirits once again to establish balance in the world. To achieve this task, you are allowed to use all kinds of lethal weapons and protect your body with rare armor sets. The gameplay takes things up a notch by using martial arts movements and different fighting environments. If you've played games like Mortal Kombat, you will quickly realize the similarity between these two titles.
In terms of controls, you can manage your samurai through an intuitive interface made for mobile devices. Moreover, try combining multiple keys to perform various skills and combos one after another. This practice deals a lot of damage to your opponents, allowing you to win the match easier. To move the character, you have to use a joystick, and with this one, you can also do different movements. The journey takes you inside six various worlds where your task is to face and defeat multiple demons.
In terms of customization, Shadow Fight 2 allows the gamer to change the fighter's looks by picking from a collection of swords, magical powers, armor suits, etc. These weapons are available in four categories. You can use your hands to control epic swords, nunchucks, or to punch your enemy. If you love causing damage to your opponent from a long distance, you should check out the Dag category. Some players enjoy the Chuck Norris style of fighting in which you can use the legs to attack the enemy. Plus, this mobile game also comes with magical skills. It's up to you to figure out what works best.
Even if the game itself is not too hard to play, it still takes plenty of time to go through because it comes with lots of content. The multiple game modes allow you to enjoy the action in different ways. For example, the plot mode requires you to finish seven chapters. Each chapter has its boss that you must defeat before you get to move to the next challenge. To fulfill this mode, you should always make your hero stronger by enhancing your attack, skills, and equipment. We can safely say that this mode is the root of everything else because from here, you can unlock other segments of the storyline and additional game modes.
Sometimes I like to test a character's strength against other heroes inside the Duels section. This aspect is a simple way to get some fighting action without having to go through additional missions. Plenty of modes are available besides the one mentioned so far, such as Tournament, Survival, Ascension, Eclipse, Underworld, etc. You are capable of joining clans and keep track of their performance inside a dedicated section. Once you're a part of a faction, you can participate in clan raids against other ones and establish your supremacy.
