What a cool game!?!?! You even play as... a shadow?

Shadow of the Colossus, but without gameplay
While it seems like the creators of this game drew inspiration from "Shadow of the Colossus" (both in the title and the game itself), it's a shame that the good gameplay has been left out.

The atmosphere, the story, and the graphics of A Shadow's Tale are all top-notch, but unfortunately, the unresponsive (remote) controls and repetitive battles cause the initial interest to quickly fade away; perhaps this game would have been more successful if it had been released on the PS3 or Xbox 360.

Atmospheric platform puzzle game
The atmosphere in A Shadow's Tale is misty and exudes a sense of loneliness. In this strange world, you play as a shadow. This means that you mainly have to pay attention to the background. This peculiar game principle does result in a few unique puzzles.

Due to the repetition in the game and having to backtrack to complete a level, A Shadow's Tale unfortunately didn't quite hit the mark for me.

This game should stay in the shadows
A Shadow's Tale is one of the few platformers on the Wii, but unfortunately, it's not one of the better ones... In this game, you play as the shadow of your hero, climbing over rooftops and running through various scenarios, but with a ridiculously high difficulty level and the joy you get from this game being low, you will quickly set this game aside.

Poorly designed.
This game is really poorly designed. If the creators would just realize that the shadow is very difficult to follow, it would have been different. Because of this, the whole game is just not good. However, it does take place in a beautiful environment (only positive point). Conclusion: A Shadow's Tale is simply TOO difficult.

Recommended if you're into platformers
A Shadow's Tale is an interesting take on the platformer genre. Every time I start up the game, I enjoy the simple gameplay, challenging puzzles, and atmospheric music. Recommended!

Poorly following game.
Very beautiful environment, but it's so difficult to follow your shadow... I didn't enjoy playing A Shadow's Tale, so I put it aside after just a few minutes. I don't understand why I spent my money on this... This game is not recommended for purchase...

Very difficult to play and hard to follow the shadow
A Shadow's Tale is a very complex game, I spent an hour trying to get out of the first world. It's a clever concept to have a shadow as the main character, but more attention should have been given to the gameplay.
It's quite frustrating to play this game normally, especially for children.

A hidden gem for me!
A Shadow's Tale (Lost in Shadow) for the Wii is an intriguing and challenging game that takes players on an adventure in a dark and mysterious world. Playing as the shadow of a boy, players must climb towers and solve puzzles using light and shadow. The visual presentation is stunning, with detailed backgrounds and brilliant light effects. The gameplay offers a decent challenge and requires precise timing and strategic thinking. Although the controls can sometimes feel a bit awkward and the story may be complex, A Shadow's Tale offers a unique gaming experience for players seeking mystery and challenge.

Once you reach level 8 and have completed the Goblin King's Slippers mission, groups of Lomar Smashers and Archers will appear in the Prindle Forest of A Shadow's Tale. These Lomars are quite easy to defeat as their movements are predictable. After defeating them, they drop bronze Ingots and gold. You can sell this bronze for 10 pieces of gold. Additionally, you will gain some experience points. If you keep this up for a day, you can quickly reach level 13.

First, you need to have a house that you can buy in the Candlewick Inn of A Shadow's Tale. If you then get lost and can no longer find your way to Edgewood, look at the bottom right of the screen. You will see a house, and you need to press on it. This will warp you back to your own house. After this, head down to the right towards the hole. Enter the Candlewick Inn again there.
