Showdown

Good Stealth Ninja Game for the Wii

Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2010

Verified Purchase

This is a good stealth ninja game for the Wii but it could have used some refinement. The controls and graphics are pretty good but they could have been better. The Jumping with the C button is clunky, awkward and a hindrance. They should have made the character animations and movements smoother, faster, and more acrobatic (like a ninja). The sword fighting duels are really bad because there is not enough reaction time for you to get your sword in place. They really should have made the sword wielding controls better like Red Steel 2 did but this came out before that game of course. The plot could really use some work and this game has one of the strangest most shocking endings to a game that I have ever seen. The controls could be much sharper and the graphics could have been too (480p at least). There needs to be more enemy variety and the AI is sometimes laughably stupid. All the enemy characters have cheesy one liners that they say which really make you laugh. However, despite all these flaws it is very satisfying to kill enemies using the Wii Remote. Acquire Software is the same company that did the first Tenchu game and this is obvious when playing this game as the music, feel, and mood are similar to the first game. From Software also worked on this game and they are a Japanese Company known for making great games like Otogi, and Demon Souls but they have somewhat missed the mark here. The use of the Wii remote is a fresh idea, however the graphics, controls, and plot are all somewhat stale to say the least. Overall this is a good addition to your Wii collection if you are a hardcore Tenchu or stealth action game fan. Although Tenchu fans will be disappointed by the controls and really disappointed by the fact that the grapling hook is not even in this game. I would love seeing this series come to the PS3 with similar but more refined motion controls, full 1080p, a longer game, better voice acting and enemy AI, use of the grappling hook, multiple characters to unlock and play, and multiple online multi-player modes, character customization, and a dramatic and engaging plot. Is that too much to ask for??? lol!

Tenchu Shadow Assassins Review

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2009

This is a pretty fun game only brought down a bit by clunky controls. Really, the controls are the only thing wrong with this game. The game quite often doesn't recognize the motions you make with the Wiimote. And in combat mode, the game wants you to be too precise to counter other people's moves. Other than that, this is a solid game, worth a try to Tenchu fans.

Why was this not released for PS3?

Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2021

The game is actually good, though no Japanese audio and that is a transgression for Shinobi/Ninja aficionados.
The motion controls are not good and you will feel frsutrated… I bought this because I love Tenchu Z, but the motion controls are not good. This should have been released in PS3 with normal controls. Such a shame!

Dissapointed Tenchu Fan

Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2009

Verified Purchase

I have played all the Tenchu games for PS and PS2. I'm obviously a really big fan of the Tenchu series. None of the Tenchu games have been as good as the first, but I love the sneaking around, story lines (most of them) and different kill moves in all the games. I always look forward to the next Tenchu game. When I saw that there was a Tenchu game for the Wii I was ecspecially excited. I briefly played the James Bond game on Wii and the little time I had with it gave me great expectations for Tenchu, thinking that the movability would be so much better than in the past. However I have been terribly dissapointed with the game. The movability is actually worse!

Cons:

~The controls are very clumsy. It is difficult to look around while moving. Impossible to turn on the spot (which you need since you are frequently on narrow beams over an enemy). While trying to turn to the side you also move forward or backward and therefore you will fall off the narrow ceiling beams.

~When you move in to kill an enemy you have to do a specific move chosen by the game (lack of freedom to choose your kill). You have to use the Wii remote to perform this specific move and there are animated instructions at the bottom of the screen for every kill. One particular move shows you pushing the remote forward as if you were stabbing the guy in the stomache, however if you try to move the remote the way the animation shows you to you will fail in your kill and be instantly sent back to the beggining. With this particular move I have found that snapping your wrist up and down works best.

~The animations are at the bottom of the screen for everything you need to do, it gets very annoying, I feel like the whole game is one big tutorial.

~Fighting with swords is impossibly hard. Again you have the animation at the bottom of the screen, however here you are not told what to do until it is almost too late.

This Tenchu has left out a lot of the good things from the original series.

~Mostly I miss my grapling hook, which was a staple through all the other Tenchus. Your grappling hook pulled you up to roofs and other high places. I am still stunned that they took it away.

~I also miss the jumping from roof to roof, not much of that in this game.

~Though Ayame is in this game, she does not seem the same person at all and therefore I miss her as well (My fav charachter through all Tenchus).

~Rolling was a great way to stealthily move through levels in previous Tenchus, there is no way to roll in this game.

~Lastly you are very limited on the number of items you can carry and even the number you can store for using on other levels. Items are always a big part of the whole Tenchu experience. I always loved luring a stupid guard with some poison rice... no poison rice in this game :(

Pros:

~Night Vision. This is awesome. With your night vision the areas you can hide in are a smokey blue color and the people in the game stand out in bright red. Not only do the people stand out but their line of sight as well. With this you are able to tell if the person around the corner is looking in your direction.

~Straffing. A quick movement from one bush to another. This is a good idea and pretty cool when it works right, however half the time you don't straff at all, instead you take one step and the other half the time you straff in the opposite direction. So not really a pro but could be if done right. Again you have to bee precise with your movement, I guess.

In closing I do not reccomend this game to anyone who has played any other Tenchu, you will be let down. The game doesn't even feel like it was made by the same creators. Actually I do not recommend it to anyone.

not the best tenchu ever

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2009

Verified Purchase

I was dissapointed even before i bought this game simply because it was on the WII. which means inferior graphics and frustrating game play. So when i got it i wasn't expecting much. It ended up being more fun than i had expected, but still not up to par with Wrath of Heaven for PS2. The lighting effects are cool, but the ninja action is lacking. It is fun to hide in bushes, and totally disapear in the shadows, and the one hit stealth kill with the shuriken is nice, but theres no grappling hook! a staple of other tenchu games. Assassinations are ok, but sort of easy to do. The mechanics of the game, such as rolling and climbing are frustrating and limited, and the hanna barbara style voice over just makes you laugh. I would advise trying other Tenchu games first.
Apparently Shadow Assasins was created by the same team that developed the first game. I don't know what they were thinking. The entire game has a feel of being unfinished, especially graphically compared with other next gen games, especially from ubisoft (the makers of Assassins Creed).
The Tenchu game franchise is one of the coolest ever. i would consider this a sub par entry, and a total let down in the next gen age of gaming.

Hiding in the shadows

Reviewed in Canada on November 20, 2009

gameplay:This game is okay. It's an interesting take on the "avoid detection" mini genre. There are a number of weapons you gather to help you kill silently, get items, and traverse the levels.
The levels are fairly limited, and although a few have more than one exit, the gameplay is pretty limited. You will also start to recognize areas, playing a different part of the same area, or with a different set of enemies.
visual: The graphics are not bad, but some of the effects get boring pretty quickly.
sound: The background music is nice, although it gets a bit annoying. Listening to footsteps, and overhearing conversations with enemies could have been a bit more refined.
replay: If you are the type of person to play for perfect, this game has a rating system. Some levels need an item from another level to find the last enemy, etc. The are also a number of short 'challenges' which are awarded after you get a certain rating on a mission. These challenges are rated as well. With the ratings, this game will take some replaying, and will keep you interested while trying to shave a few seconds off your time.
Overall: This game pulls off a decent avoid detection style, but could use a bit more substance, and larger, original levels.
Wii notes: This game is quite good at keeping movement of the wiimote, and nunchuck minimal, and the swordplay uses the wii-mote well. Good job with balance here. Some people may prefer a little more wii-mote action.

It's a good game. Too bad it's not in Original Version (Voices are in English instead of Japanese).
It's not simple to make the moves with the Wiimote. It's too bad if the game wasn't on PS3 or PS4.
