Shadowhand is a strategic RPG card game. Duel powerful enemies with unique solitaire-style turn-based combat. Equip your character strategically to sneak, slice and blast through foes! We follow the story of Lady Cornelia Darkmoor, a beguiling young aristocrat who masquerades as the notorious highwaywoman, Shadowhand. Fleeing a crime scene and forced to act under the cover of darkness, Shadowhand's mission to safeguard a woman she holds dear leads to a web of corruption, smuggling and blackmail.

OK, this game advertises itself as CRPG, and if I had to note it as a CRPG, it is about 0/10.
This game is just a Solitaire.
No more, no less.
Now, as a Solitaire, it is not too bad, provided you like Solitaires. It is clearly not my cup of tea, but since I had it for a while in my Library, I could not refund and had to play it.

Gameplay is fun enough, but the story is painfully bad. Do yourself a favor and skip every cutscene.

Nice card game, with skill cards, different weapons and armour for the character. Being able to access the in-game shop at any time would of been a great addition.

Game was decent, although heavily rng based. Best case scenario to finish other difficulties if you don't high combo early, you can just restart :D

If you like this kind of game, I recommend it. But I can't play fast enough to win the fights, and I really wish I could remove it from my library so I stop being reminded that I spent money on something I can't play. lol

Shadowhand is a great iteration on choose higher or lower rank solitaire from a company with a great track record of innovation. The duel format is interesting, and the stacked card layouts are generally creative. Most of the achievements seem to be unlocked in a standard run of Very Hard Mode, thanks to the high goal requirements needed to pass the last two levels. I definitely appreciate that beating the game on the highest difficulty completes the achievements for the lower difficulties.
My main objection is that some duels are to apparent death while others are to enemy surrender, but the ratio of survivors to apparent kills is heavily in favor of kills, including some guards the protagonist states she'd rather not be fighting. She definitely comes across as more of an antihero than I am generally comfortable playing.
For some reason, I had started this game twice and then lost the save file with my furthest progress for years. Fortunately, the default launch of Steam Sync on my new computer (somehow??) managed to recover and install the correct save file. I'm definitely happy to finally finish this game with a complete achievement run.

I can't believe I bought a solitaire game....Wait....I......can't believe I'm geeking out over a solitaire game. It really is that good.
Solitaire....go figure? Seriously, buy it.
