4.0 out of 5 stars Shadow Warrior The Complete Survival Guide, March 29, 2000

The book delivers. I don't own the book because it is a great read but because it provides solutions at essential times of need. An earlier one star review makes it out to be a bad novel. The book was wholly adequate and kudos on top, a four star. No problem trying to find secret places but then, again, most of my time was spent in the game itself. When I needed help the Survival Guide came through with flying colors. The description of the book by the authors is accurate. No complaints here and the book was a life saver when trying to find the needed solutions to progress though the rest of the game. Definately recommended for the topic it covers.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is badly written with bad photography., May 9, 1999

This review is from: Shadow Warrior The Complete Survival Guide (Gaming Mastery) (Paperback)

A warning to players of 3D realm's latest hit "Shadow Warrior" you are better off getting cheat codes of a web site or a FAQ off a fan site because this book provides little if any in depths help. Many of the references are inaccurate. Plus the screen shot look like they were taken by a blind man. All in all, a waste of your well earned 13 bucks. Take it from me, this is not worth half of what it costs. For example, in area one, there are six secrets in which the book does not explain how to reach any in detail. Just a blant description of where it is, in which any novice would not have the slightest clue what is being talked about. I have also tried following there instructions step by step and ended up in a meaningless room instead of finding the train station. It's huge flaws like this that diminish this strategy guide from other great ones, such as Duke Nukem 3D and Doom. They have no referance to any newer versions of Shadow Warrior or any installation help. Furthermore they offer no help at all with creating or using user creating maps. With all this in mind the 13 dollars is really not worth it at all. Find another FAQ or take it up with Gamewinners.Com because the bottom line is that this book does not cut it. Need Help with Shadow Warrior, look for the unofficial or unauthorized versions. They may actually provide help you need instead of badly written help tips and such. Final review: Thumbs down! Way down to a book that may have taken an hour to write and another hour to cut and paste art class pictures. This book did not cut it...take my word for it...or dont...and waste your money.
