I love the animated scenes and voice overs in the dialogue! The different modes and lore is AMAZING to go through! Love this series.

As someone with no prior experience with the Shantae games, this was a fun lil adventure! A very manageable metroidvania with clear progression and a fun story. The gameplay itself is not particularly challenging (I defeated most of the bosses on the first try, including the final), so I'd recommend it if you're looking for something more lighthearted and colorful that you don't have to bang your head against. If you're a completionist the card drops may start to feel a little grindy, but I could also see myself coming back to this just to 100% it. It's a relatively short game, so get it on sale if you really want your money's worth!

the game has tumblr-esque dialogue, gooner character designs, 1000 healing items that make you immortal, and weird voice acting so basically its just the average shantae game. 8/10 i didn't like the card system + no ammo baron (the worst part of the game honestly)

Story: In this one, it initially follows a vacation, when the half genies are kidnapped. And as Shantae proceeds, while it is a rescue effort. She does learn a bit more about what the genies left behind. It also gets into Risky's plan, and why everything here happened. System: Mostly the same, with the Dance transformations changed to like special moves. And the animal transformations linked more to the movements. This is cool and all, and the concept was nice. Though, pretty sure peeps play to turn into a monkey. That aside, it could have been a better execution if the concept was combined with actual transformations. The map as well is a bit larger overall. Animations: Amazing art style, and amazing mini animated cutscenes. Music: Amazing as usual. Overall: This is a really good game, and it does correct a number of issues the previous entries had. The platforming, as well as the difficulties in them are much better managed here.

The story is..Shantae. It's so corny and I don't really care about it but that's not why I play these games. This is a perfect back to form with the Metroid style gameplay...mixed with zelda, mega man, mario, metroid/castlevania...literally, the gameplay is perfect.
