Shadowgun Legends: FPS Shooter +12

This was my first mobile shooter game I ever played and probably one of the most top-notch mobile games currently available; the most intricate factor about shadowgun is that there aren’t just pvp and battle royale combat involved, there are also missions and tasks to accomplish as well so this game never really strikes the dull period at all. The graphics and gameplay, stated most accurately, are “music to my ears” and the controls are both customizable and very responsive as well, not to mention, the sound effects aren’t to shabby either. My only fret, however, is that Shadowgun lacks a 3rd person option, and that factor greatly hinders performance capability during a match; 1st person positions the camera directly where the character’s head is (self-explanatory) which generates an extremely realistic sensation while fighting, but also introduces a HUGE blind spot where you’re not looking. I’ve been stalked and killed from directly behind, unable to back into crevices because the only way to find the, would be to take your eyes completely off the enemy which leaves you completely vulnerable, and even wind up accidentally backing up and falling off ledges because I can’t tell at all where exactly my character is standing and all of these problems are addressed by being able to see your character’s status in third person.

This is a great game. It is probably the only Mobile FPS game that has a good PVE element as well. It is very much like a mobile version of Destiny 2. Most other mobile fps games are entirely PVP focused. SGL has decent pvp but the main draw is fun pve. Controls and graphics are great, as is gameplay. Big win is that it is not pay to win. You can use money to buy cosmetics and emotes but if you want OP gear, you have to put in the legwork. I spent dollars on the cosmetics because I like looking cool and I want to support the developers and encourage them to develop new content. Alas, there hasn’t been any new content in a long time and it seems there may never be because the developers are instead focusing all their energy and resources on a new PC game. They said they have a growth team to continue growing SGL and other existing mobile game but we haven’t seen any new content from this team. I don’t have high hopes we will get anything new. This is a pity because SGL has a captive market and there is no other game like it on mobile, while they will have stiff competition on the PC market going against bigger studios.

This FPS really knows how to keep the player on the toes, even if the gameplay does get a bit repetitive at times, and for some reason, this is one of the few games out there that actually CARE about the player! Which other game would not let you do multiplayer at high pings because they don’t want you raging because of lag?! And what game has this much detail in graphics and gameplay?! Though it has a really fair shooting system which lets you learn how to deal with harder NPCs and slowly ramps up till it’s a bit insane, and the enemy also progresses in weaponry, the idea of repeatedly shooting does get dull and feels a bit like grinding, though don’t get me wrong this is the best FPS on the phone I’ve ever played and might ever play!! The hub is also a great way to spend your time just chilling in the lobby, and is really in depth with even the power to get drunk! The multiplayer is a bit boring because there’s always never enough players to join you in ascendency and there’s always someone going afk, but if you DO get to join, the connection is pretty solid and the game system even prevents you from joining if you have high ping so you don’t lose because of bad internet connection. To sum it all up, it’s a very VERY solid FPS that’s a bit rough around the edges and glitches and bugs are very very rare. Gameplay is a bit repetitive but really god graphics. The story may be a bit boring though.. I would rate 9.5/10
