Shadwen begins with promise, but has neither the depth nor the variety needed to fulfill...
Trailers for Shadwen had this game pegged as a dastardly murder simulator, where enemy knights would fall due to the clever machinations you had set up, like some kind of sadistic Rube Goldberg machine. Well, there's a little more to it than that, and...
