Aiko’s Choice is a brand-new standalone addon to the beloved stealth tactics game Shadow Tactics. Set in Japan around the Edo period, you take control of kunoichi adept Aiko and her deadly assassin friends to hunt down the ghosts of her past.
Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun – Aiko’s Choice focuses on one of the main game protagonists: Aiko, a follower of the kunoichi. Mistress of camouflage, she distracts her enemies by disguising herself as a geisha. While Aiko was sure she had left her old life behind, her former sensei, the cunning Lady Chiyo, master spy, reappeared from the shadows to challenge her. Along with her friends, a group of deadly assassins, she sets out on a ghost hunt from her past.
We had the chance to get a copy of the game and here is our honest review.

Pros

- Brilliant add-on with new story line
- Great character design
- Unlimited strategies - Play with Japanese voices

Cons

- The map is fixed. Makes it hard to plan certain moves
- Hard at first if you are not familiar with the genre.

What We Think

Excellent artistic direction, full of colors and memorable landscapes, which therefore goes hand in hand with a good technical system but not incredible. For Desperado' fans, the add-on title will bring this unique universe back to you and if you haven't played Shadow Tactics, you better!

I am passionate about “Heroic Fantasy” and “Beat Them all” games on Nintendo Game System (I hate SEGA). Now that I am old, I love retro gaming, since I don’t have much time. Feels good to watch endings though…
