Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution Switch NSP Free Download Romslab You probably don’t strictly need to know this, but I’m gonna share it anyhow – I’m a giant fan of the Shantae games. I have been ever since I played Risky’s Revenge, and then Pirate’s Curse truly got me hooked. The mix of hilarious and charming characters, solid platforming, and unexpected fun all meshed into a wonderful tribute to the platformers of yore that I grew up with. I’ve enjoyed the other games in the series as well, like the original game, Half-Genie Hero, and Seven Sirens, but I never expected a return to the style of the classic games.

Gave us in Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution. A once-lost GBA adventure for Shantae and friends. It would have been easy for this game to be a throwaway novelty. Instead, it’s etched itself in the Shantae pantheon as my second favorite game after Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse. It never occurred to me that people would make such a big deal out of a half naked genie, but I also didn’t know that people would end up watching Japanese horse racing more than most sports. People tend to gravitate towards characters and ideas if they give them something to look at that sparks a particularly funny feeling in their brain.

Discover the lost chapter of the Shantae saga, fully restored and released after 20 years!

For the half-genie character Shantae, her powers and unique storyline are often overlooked because she’s curvy, wears little clothing and…that’s basically it. Like it or not, WayForward has managed to take some decently passable games and tie them to anime eye candy for years. So it’s actually pretty cool that they took one of the missing parts of the storyline and brought it to life, twenty years later. Fans can now finally experience Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution. Risky Revolution takes place between the original GameBoy Shantae title and the revival of the series, Risky’s Revenge. Biz Builder Delux Switch NSP

Most of the plot is established from the get-go: Shantae is a half-genie guardian, Risky Boots is a pirate who is doing bad things, and Shantae has some absurd friends to help her out. The rub, this time, is that Risky is moving towns and areas around the globe through some crazy technology called the Tremor Engine in order to disrupt everything and then rob people blind. Shantae must now embark on a multi-part adventure to find three Relic Hunters, who will hopefully help think up a way to stop Risky’s ruinous robbing once and for all! is an interesting one to come in on.

Fight and explore using your hair-whipping ability, magic items, and belly-dance transformations (including monkey, elephant, crab, and more)!

Beyond the more “gameplay” aspects, you’ve got three titles in one to choose from. You’ve got the modern version of the main game (which we can detail in a moment), the original GBA version that’s now been completed, and a multiplayer battle mode that is…a thing. Honestly, it’s fine, it’s cute, and I would have never bought it if it were a standalone game. Two to four players move in a tiny, shifting arena to try and knock the other players onto spikes and win. Each player spot is locked to a character (player one is Shantae, player two is Risky, etc) and there’s no real excitement other than killing a few moments. Bizarre Switch NSP

It’s a nice extra, but it’s not even close to the reason to pick up this game. Shantae, in series tradition, wakes up late for her daily duties of protecting Scuttle Town and helping her uncle Mimic with his latest invention just in time to repel an assault on the town, this time by regular series antagonist Risky Boots in what is but a prelude to her real scheme- using her nefarious Tremor Engines to spin the landmasses of Sequin Land around so previously landlocked locales can be assaulted from the sea. Naturally it falls to Shantae – with the help of her companions Bolo, Sky, and Rottytops – to track down Risky and her allies.

Swapped geography comes from, visit it for clues on where to find a relic hunter and parts to fix a machine to swap the two locales back, and then visit the actual platforming challenge area. In that area you’ll find a foreground and background area, the alignment of which can and must be switched to fully explore the area, several small challenge caves with various rewards and key items, a larger dungeon with a transformation to help Shantae navigate her surroundings, and the primary dungeon that holds another transformation, a boss battle, and the relic hunter needed for plot progression.

As far as gameplay gimmicks go, the background and foreground one is fairly interesting. While the game is 2D, each platforming area is comprised of two ring-shaped areas, one being the foreground and one being the background. Shantae can only swap between the two areas at specific fixed points, which normally leaves certain areas of the foreground and background layers impossible to reach, requiring Shantae to find the tremor engine hidden in each area to rotate the rings and realign the two areas to access new areas and to solve the puzzle in each one, which will involve using one of Shantae’s genie transformations on various spots.
