    Kill the Shadow also features some nice pixel art, but this time in the context of an investigation-based adventure game (although it's billed as an RPG), set in an alternate HK. Enjoyed the interface and the bits I played in the demo, would like to play more.

    The demo of “Kill The Shadow” on Steam has me so incredibly blown away. Not only do I love a good detective game- but this 2D/3D Art style is beautiful and the music is so GOOD. I am so stoked for the full version. #KillTheShadow

    Some thoughts on demos from NextFest: Kill The Shadow - A dystopian, detective game with an engaging story where a lot of your choices matter. Lots of content warnings here, but the story and characters are fantastic. Grab the demo here: store.steampowered.com/app/2660230/...

    Double whammy but I'm holding off on Expeditions Samurai, got "Kill the Shadow" instead which has amazing art, direction & gameplay mechanics. Set in a fictionalized asia (trad. Chinese). Great game ...so why in the Stone-Johannsen do the characters have YT full names? Mr Smith, Irene Carter, etc.

    So yeah, that's a big rec for Kill the Shadow. Detective adventure game that takes place in "not China" after seemingly going to war with "not Japan," which had massive political and economic repercussions that you will be navigating throughout your case. store.steampowered.com/app/2660230/...
