However, this works really well as a jumping-off point to the series. I dabbled very briefly with one on the iPad but beyond that my experience has been limited to what I have read, so I can’t comment directly on comparisons to other entries.
Now I must confess that this is my first Shantae title. This one was crowd funded on Kickstarter which doesn’t always result in a great game but WayForward know what they’re doing. Shantae: Half-Genie Hero is the fourth title in the Shantae franchise from WayForward Technologies.
