'Shadow Puppeteer' (ALL) Coming To Wii U Next Week - Screens

by Rainier on Jan. 22, 2016 @ 1:19 a.m. PST

Shadow Puppeteer is a co-op adventure where players assume the roles of a boy and his shadow, separated from one another by the evil shadow puppeteer.

The boy is one of the many people that have been separated from their shadows by the mischievous Shadow Puppeteer. Luckily though, his shadow managed to escape the Puppeteer’s clutches and is now able to help the boy out in chasing the villain and saving all the shadows he’s stolen.

Players must work together to manipulate light, solving puzzles that bring them closer to finding this villain and freeing the other shadows he has stolen.

“What makes a local co-op game great is when both characters have active and meaningful roles in the game’s progression,” said Catharina Bøhler, CEO of Sarepta studio. “We spent an enormous amount of time ensuring this was the case with Shadow Puppeteer. Judging from the community’s response when we merely announced the game was coming to Wii U, we think people see the appeal of co-op in Shadow Puppeteer and are really excited to start playing. It’s a humbling experience.”

“We’re thrilled to help Sarepta studio bring Shadow Puppeteer to Wii U,” said Espen Askvik, CEO of Snow Cannon Games. “Shadow Puppeteer is the type of game we feel the Wii U community is craving: a truly engaging co-op adventure that can be enjoyed on the couch with friends, children or significant others. We’re looking forward to hearing what the Nintendo community thinks after playing the game in a few weeks.”

Shadow Puppeteer will be available on the Nintendo eShop for $14.99 in the U.S. and €14.99 in Europe.
