As a shadow spirit, your abilities only refill while you’re sheltered under dark, and will drain rapidly in the light. You can also paint shadows on any unlit surface, for even more options to aid both traversal and murder. It’s a fantastic stalking tool and one that lets you explore the densely designed levels with cunning.

This is basically the blink ability from Dishonored, and it works exceptionally well here. You’re a shadow adept spirit, which means you can use any shadow to your stealthy advantage by leaping to it with a click of the right mouse button. Set over 13 chapters taking place over one dark night, the gameplay of Aragami is fluid and fun from the outset. Turns out, Aragami: Shadow Edition is one of the most enjoyable action-adventure stealth experiences available. In 2018, the much-anticipated expansion Nightfall has finally been released, which has given me the perfect chance to find out exactly what I’d missed the first time around. Back in 2016, Barcelona-based developer Lince Works released Aragami, a third person stealth game where you take on the form of a vengeful shadow spirit, summoned to seek revenge on the army of light.
