About the game

About Shadow Duel

A one-on-one ninja duel drawn in ink and moonlight. Read your rival, guard, then strike back: every defence opens a counter, and a run of good defence triggers your ninja's own counter cinematic (一 二 三) that ends in a finishing strike. - 13 ninjas with their own weapons: katana, nodachi, twin tanto, naginata, kusarigama, bo staff, war fans and a bow, each with a signature kick and ki technique - Knock the sword out of your rival's hands and fight on with fists and kicks, or flick your blade back up from the floor - 7 arenas that hit back: waves, gales, falling beams, runaway carts, snow slides, lightning and leaf storms, with slippery floors, walls and props you can use - An eight-fight journey for every ninja with its own ending, mastery stars and Legacy colors - A monthly tournament, a Dan rank trial from Kyu 10 to Dan 10 and the Shadow Pass - Japanese announcer and voiced fighters - Training, combo trials and a short tutorial - Two players on one keyboard or two gamepads, or fight the AI on three difficulties

Expect action at its core, with a streak of arcade woven through the design. Check the opening instructions for the controls supported by this browser edition.

A couple of things help once you get going: If the mode uses teams, coordinate your next action instead of assuming others will follow. If lobbies offer different skill levels, choose one appropriate for your experience.
