It's okaaaaaaaayy, but really a bummer compared to Pirate's Curse :(
It ruined a certain character's entire arc, the story was really lame and the dialogue felt so distant from the story it was trying to tell.
And the backtracking in this game is the lamest in the series so far too, there's just sooo few areas to explore.
At least the music bangs X3
And the new transformations are kinda neat as well :>
I can still recommend it to people who like Shantae, but not as an entry point :o

The game is... okay. Even if Risky Boots basically lost all her character development to go full evil again.
The main reason why I'm rating this 3.5 out of 5 is the fact you have to complete the game over 20 times to get all achievements. That's insane and an extreme way to add padding to a game that will likely bore you to death before you even clear the game a second time.
10th game cleared in 2024. Time to clear: About seven hours? 16/46 achievements obtained. Hips that lie? Yes.

Good fucking god what a slog. If you wanted to change the structure of Shantae, just make it a level to level mega man-esc platformer. Don’t have that AND THEN make 3 hours of this 4 and a half hour game backtracking to those said levels to do the most meaningless shit imaginable. The transformations are a tad better in terms of gameplay but they still break the pace of the game. BORING game, I cannot believe this is the one that got the most support.
