    Challenging and a lot of fun a real head scratching not because its confusing but because master two characters at once is really hard. It is a truly unique game to play and even better to play with friends with a very calming musical score and a fairly interesting plot.

    Shadow Puppeteer is a awesome game! It have a beautiful design and a new and unique gameplay with kind of a creepy Tim Burton movie feeling. I played in single mode and did not have any problems coordinate the two characters. I think the game have just the right amount of difficulty, yes some levels were a little difficult like the final boss and so on, but true gamers like a challenge andShadow Puppeteer is a awesome game!

Playing with two characters at the same time is not a struggle just double the fun ;D I recommend to give this game a chance and check it out! Expand

    What seemed to be a nice idea for a co-op game (the inclusion of single player mode should be outright omitted) is marred by a significant amount of bugs as well as weak platforming sections that lead constantly to frustration.

    It is admirable that an indie studio comes up with a unique game that offers a great puzzle idea. Your shadow is your friend, but the controls definitely are not.

    Shadow Puppeteer has the potential to be a really good game, if the developers at Sarepta Studio can get rid of the teething problems that are disruptive of the experience at the moment. The game features clever puzzles and difficult boss battles, and is worth a try when more of the bugs are removed.
