Sep 21, 2020Shing! misses the mark of great beat 'em up by a long shot; which could have been avoided with more attention to detail. If Mass Creation put in the effort, it could have been one of the best beat 'em ups this generation. But we’re stuck with something too dull to take a bigger slice of that audience.

Aug 29, 2020Whether playing local with friends or solo, there's not much reason to pick up Shing! over any other beat 'em up out there. The art style is full of blocky 3D figures that are hard to look at after seeing the beautiful hand-animated opening. The characters and dialogue are ruined by adolescent pandering that feels decades out of date. The combat tries to reinvent the wheel by bringing back mechanics from Too Human and proving why they don't work all over again. The only positive is that the game is a quick run-through for the morbidly curious and exceptionally bored.
