Our take on Shieldmaiden: Remix Edition
The level-based structure gives the game a defined route through its city, but limits the stated scope to 9 levels and about 5 hours when secrets and collectibles are counted. Its focus is on shield combat, puzzles, and boss encounters rather than a longer, open-ended journey.
