Shadow Fight 2 12+

I’ve been playing this game since I was 6 or 7 on my Kindle fire. I’ve gotten the best stuff, max upgraded everything. However, there was once a time, many years ago where I was on the final boss fight against Titan, but I could never beat him. I left the game for a while. When I came back on my old phone, I had to restart my progress. I was heartbroken, but I carried on, and got back to where I had gone before, but it took too long, I guess I just didn’t play enough because it had already been 2 years. I got a new phone, my current one, and had to restart again because it didn’t save my progress. But again, I decided I’d get back to where I was. The best part is, I’m not even upset that I have to restart, I love this game so much that just the journey to the final fight is one that I can play over and over again. So I’m day 3 into my third journey. I’ve already beaten all of Hermits bodyguards and beaten Lynx in eclipse.

Anyway, please get this game, it’s not a huge power drain like a lot of other games, it gives you many many hours of fun with a healthy and good progression with armor and weapons. As well as a very high skill ceiling. Also, I’ve never spent a cent on this game, and I’m still having tons of fun. Also, if you get this game, watch the gem videos for like 10 gems a day, it’s so worth it when there’s a really good sale in the shop.

Shadow Fight 2 is by far my favorite mobile game of all time. I have maxed out gear and levels and have the tempest rage legendary enchantment and a medium enchantment on all of my gear. I've been reading the reviews of the game, and people are saying that the CPU spamming ranged attacks is making the game hard to play. I can say from personal experience that this is not something that is broken or even something that puts you at a disadvantage. The controls are designed so that you can avoid these attacks and take advantage of the opening they create to start a chain of your own. Additionally, there are no issues with moves not activating as I saw in another review. In the 3+ years I had this game I never experienced any issues with the controls at all. It is very stable and will run smoothly and without bugs even on my 5S. It does require a ton of grinding to complete the game, but although I did spend $7 on microtransactions in appreciation of Nekki and the game, it is certainly possible to complete without spending any money. That being said, SF3 isn't too far off now and I don't think it is feasible to complete the game before it comes out. I would wait for that to come out or play this game casually for practice because the controls will have the same basic concept.

The game is overall good, but the one complaint I have is the encounter mechanic where you reach a certain range of levels and somebody approaches and challenges you. To start this off, the enemy is WAY too hard. Typically impossible, insane if lucky, and it’s one of those “If you get hit more than 3-4 times, you’re dead but you have to hit me at least 40 times, and also, you still lose 1/5 of your health if you block” impossible. There is an option where you can go to the shop and buy yourself a new weapon or armor to help you out, but every time I didn’t have any money to do anything so I don’t see much point in that. If you upgraded your equipments frequently, you might win, but if you’re one of those people that save up their money to upgrade your weapon to the next level without repeating survival mode more than 10 times, you’re not in luck. And every time you try to walk away after you lost, May will stop you telling not to, giving you a reason. When this happened to me in act 6, she said that I can’t let anyone have a doubt in my identity, which made me feel like I was screwing up the entire storyline and made me feel guilty, even though I tried my best using all the gems I had to retry the battle. And also you need to realize that you can’t fight these guys again. No chance; you lose, you will never get the exclusive weapon, no retry after you walk away. I think how y’all designed the encounter mechanic is pretty unfair.
