Trivia

In level 1 ("Seppuku Station") is a TV playing footage of Michael Faye's Singapore caning incident. After you get the gold key located on the crates, you'll notice a window of a room above which houses an Uzi. If you stand along the ledge with this room to your left, you can make out another window dead ahead. Make a running jump towards that window and you'll land on the ledge of that window. Inside, you'll see the video along with some weapons and a medkit.

User Reviews

For the fans

Just another Duke3D-like, but this one is very well done. Once again 3dRealms did an awesome game. This time the hero is a funny ninja and the action takes place in a weird old/futuristic Japan. As usual there are monsters (not enough different species), weapons (a lot !), blood, gore, chicks and bad taste jokes. Overall, good time, lots of killing, sometimes amusing. Of course this game is recommended for the fans of the genre only because there's nothing new in Shadow Warrior.
