About

Shantae embarks on her first full HD adventure! When a mysterious crime wave sweeps Sequin Land, it’s up to Half-Genie Hero Shantae to save the day! Use Shantae’s devastating Hair-Whip Attack to send monsters flying, or Belly Dance to transform into a more powerful creature form! Topple the masterminds behind each criminal caper and prepare for the ultimate showdown against Shantae’s arch nemesis - the bodacious buccaneer Risky Boots!
Key Features:
• Shantae’s trademark moves return! Dance to transform into all-new and classic creatures, or summon magical attacks! Over a dozen dances to discover in all!
• New Relic System allows players to unlock new powers and customize moves for Shantae and her many forms!
• Conquer arcade-style action stages that unfold into a full world to explore. Fast action and quest-style exploration rolled into one!
• When Shantae’s story ends, you’re just getting started! DLC Modes introduce new characters, levels, and bosses!
• Huge Bosses, humorous dialogue, and the wonderfully weird Shantae cast return, now in fully animated HD!
This all-inclusive version comes with all of the previously released DLC, Modes, and Costumes!
Save the day as belly dancing half-genie Shantae! Conquer Sequin Land as the evil Risky Boots in ‘Pirate Queen’s Quest’! Swap between Sky, Bolo, and Rottytops in ‘Friends to the End’! And finally, wall-jump as Ninja Shantae, soak up sun as Beach Shantae, serve justice as Officer Shantae!

Shantae: Half-Genie Hero Ultimate Edition reviews and comments

Completed as of writing this review: All DLCs 100%.

This will be a review for DLCs, since I don't own the Ultimate Edition, but since there are no standalone pages for DLCs, I think it will be more fitting to add my reviews here.

Pirate Queen's Quest: A very nice DLC but slightly short. I would suggest buying this only if you liked the base game a lot. The gameplay mechanic is interesting and unique to the series, however not by much.

Friends to the End: A good DLC that is worth buying if you're looking for a challenge in the Shantae series. It has a lot of uniqueness to it with the character switching mechanic. The Level design is based around you switching constantly and that gives you a good amount of challenge. So yeah, buy it, try it, only if you like the base game though.

Costume Pack: I would recommend waiting for a sale. While I'm a sucker for such campaigns as Mighty Switch Force! styled one, I didn't like the beach costume, and the ninja costume was just okay. Not a good DLC for its price to be honest.

A nice Game from a Company that funded the Game via Kickstarter. The Result is a Platformer With a unique Character. It is worth acquiring this Game. The Add-ons are ranging from slightly disappointing but still acceptable to quite good (Risky addon)

Very good sequel to the adventures of Shantae or one has the opportunity to embody it directly in the main adventure with its genius powers or in one of the three DLC in Ninja mode, in Beach mode and in officer mode. In addition, one can embody his three friends in the DLC friends to the end and risky boots in the DLC pirate's Queen quest. In the end, the game offers a good playing time even if it is always the same levels to traverse whatever the game mode chosen, only the gameplay changes.
