Shantae and the Pirates Curse
SCORE: 65
My smile is bright thanks to Family Friendly Gaming purchasing a copy of Shantae and the Pirates Curse on the Nintendo 3DS. The PR and Marketing humans representing this hand held video game failed us. Maybe they knew what we would say to them about Shantae and the Pirates Curse. Is all of that jiggling and wiggling really required? Must the women wear clothing three sizes too small?
As you probably ascertained Shantae and the Pirates Curse is filled with lack of attire, and enticement to lust. Shantae and the Pirates Curse also has magic, violence, dark magic, and more. The difficulty level in Shantae and the Pirates Curse is up there. Think of a Mega Man video game, or a Metroid video game. I got so tired of killing the same enemies over and over again in Shantae and the Pirates Curse.
The music in this hand held half dressed belly dancing character video game is good. The 2D side scrolling levels have an intelligent design. The graphics are on the small side. Save early and often in Shantae and the Pirates Curse. Especially after you get a new weapon or something. There is too much back tracking, and solving random riddles. Hardcore gamers will most likely enjoy Shantae and the Pirates Curse.
The storyline in Shantae and the Pirates Curses is interesting. An evil pirate lord is back and we have to collect the dark essences to stop him. Shantae has to team up with a former nemesis and work together to stop this new threat. I found it fascinating personally. One of the few aspects of Shantae and the Pirates Curse I actually enjoyed. On top of the music of course.
I value Shantae and the Pirates Curse ten to fifteen dollars brand new. This hand held video game (which was ported to other systems later) can be on the short side. That is if you know what you are doing and get enough heart upgrades, and find the weapons. There is a specific pattern to the enemies we face in Shantae and the Pirates Curse. Small rooms can be a problem with certain enemies.
