Having really enjoyed some of the previous games from Devolver, such as the Serious Sam series and even more so Hotline Miami, I was somewhat reluctant to play Shadow Warrior. Call it the curse of Duke Nukem Forever, but I was unsure about it.

Needless to say, Shadow Warrior is a great FPS. The Katana combat is actually really well done and disturbingly satisfying. The addition of "combo moves" by pressing the arrow keys prior to attacking add a nice level of complexity (but not too complex in the heat of battle) that really shines when going up against large groups of demons. Also, a "leveling up" system helps add various additional abilities such as AOE stuns and healing to yourself.

There's some decent humor, lots of sarcasm from your trusty demon sidekick, and a touch of 80's action movie that's enjoyable. Add on plenty of secrets and nods to the previous game, and it's time well spent.
