The team behind Desperados 3 and Shadow Tactics wants you to lead an undead pirate crew to riches and glory | PC Gamer

Assemble your zombie squad in Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew this year.

 

Quote

 

A third of the way through Desperados 3, Mimimi Games' excellent sneaky tactics romp, the Wild West gets a bit weird. A new playable character is introduced who deviates from the usual cowboy cliches thanks to her ability to possess animals, control the minds of her enemies and link living creatures together Dishonored-style. These occult shenanigans are a consistent highlight and demand a follow-up. Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, the team's latest project, is more than happy to oblige.  

 

This is the Golden Age of Piracy, but not as we know it. In this alternate history, death has taken on a new meaning for the pirate crews that sail the high seas. In a nod to Pirates of the Caribbean, Captain Afia is on a mission to gather a crew of undead ne'er-do-wells, using magical artefacts known as Black Pearls to transform them into their best selves—all in an effort to pull off a big heist and thwart the forces of some anti-magic killjoys: the Inquisition of the Burning Maiden. 

 

 

 

Desperados 3 devs' next game is about magical undead pirates and looks rad as heck

Mimimi Games have unveiled their next stealth strategy game, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, and we've seen it in action and talked to the devs.

 

Quote

 

Mimimi Games have been teasing their next stealth strategy game for over two years now, and finally, we know what it is. Today, the makers of Desperados 3 and Shadow Tactics: Blades Of The Shogun revealed that the game formerly known as Codename: Sweet Potato (or Süßkartoffel, in their native German) is now called Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, and it's all about undead magical pirates. Sign me the heck up.

 

I got to see Shadow Gambit in action late last week, and boy howdy it looks super cool. Even better, it's coming to Steam and the Epic Games Store later this year. Read on below to watch its pair of exciting reveal trailers, and find out all about it.

Thanks for the tag, Sir.

 

I'm there Day 1. I've raved about Shadow Tactics and Desperados 3 enough on here, they're both phenomenal games and this dev has this genre down to "maximum fun" science level. That being said, I think the art style is surprisingly bad. The characters, logo and cover art in general looks like a gacha mobile game and the levels being shown in the Gameplay Trailer visually don't look nearly as good as Desperados 3. Maybe those games didn't do well and budget got cut or something, who knows. I'm 99% sure the actual game will be great though so I don't really care.

They're self-publishing this one so it's safe to assume the budget is reduced compared to Desperados III.

Checks out. The level of detail in the levels and art look way below the previous two games. It's a shame to see because they were beautiful games with tons of atmosphere. Desperados III's swamp/steamboat level especially was super memorable on that front.

After 7 hours, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew might be Mimimi's most joyful stealth strategy game yet

We've played a big chunk of Mimimi's Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew ahead of its Steam Next Fest demo and enjoyed it immensely.

 

Quote

 

Ahead of the launch of its Steam Next Fest demo next week, I've been playing a substantial early build of Mimimi Games' latest stealth strategy game, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew. After delighting us with Edo-period Japan in Shadow Tactics: Blades Of The Shogun and the rootin' tootin' tales of the Wild West in Desperados 3, Mimimi have taken a firm step outside their comfort zone with the high seas island-hopping of Shadow Gambit, offering up an altogether different approach to their tried and tested stealth antics.

 

As you might have guessed from the name, its eponymous crew aren't bound by the laws of reality in this latest tactical outing, and their extensive suite of magic abilities really open up the playing field for some creative takedowns. But the canvas on which you're painting these elaborate murders has morphed since the days of Desperados 3, with its handful of islands now offering multiple points of entry, a myriad of different missions and objectives and - for the first time ever - repeat visits to the same locations. It's quite the sea change from Mimimi's previous work, but rest assured: the crown jewels of the Mimimi stealth strategy experience certainly haven't been lost to Davey Jones' locker in the process. If nothing else, this is the most fun I've had with a Mimimi game, period - and I cannot wait to dive back in properly when it launches on August 17th.

 

 

Quote

 

There's a lot more I could say about Shadow Gambit. There's an open air library on one island that's a particular delight for team aerial takedowns, as is the prison fortress that hugs the crater of a magical volcano. Carefully placed rocks and cranes also make the mind wander, and while not all members of your crew are able to swim in the shallows, the ones that can are able to pop up like sharks to snuff out wayward guards on lonely docks and spits of sand. Each island is a veritable playground of possibility in Shadow Gambit, and the thought of having only sampled a couple of them with just over half of its final crew to hand just makes me even more eager to see what other treasures are lying in wait in the final game.

 

So if you were at all worried that Mimimi might have bitten off more than they could chew with Shadow Gambit, you can set your mind at ease. The Cursed Crew is looking pretty ship shape right now, and you should absolutely try out the Next Fest demo for yourself when it launches on Steam next week, on June 19th. You should also mark your calendars for its full release while you're at it, too. Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is coming to Steam and the Epic Games Store on August 17th.

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew’s Unique Stealth-Strategy Is One of 2023’s Biggest Surprises - IGN

WWW.IGN.COM

 

Quote

 

The ship’s cook slowly approached the Inquisition checkpoint. He whistled from around the corner, drawing one guard away from his post while my navigator teleported through the wall to kill the other one. As the remaining Inquisitor neared the bush where the rest of my crew was hiding, my ghostly spy possessed him. The spy, now a supernatural Agent 47 wearing the guard’s body as a disguise, returned to the checkpoint and waited, sabotaging a suspended crate to crush the approaching Inquisition leader, leaving the rest of my squad free to rescue the final Cursed crewmate and make our escape. Imagine many more moments like that and you’ll have a good idea of what it was like to preview Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew.

 

Shadow Gambit is an isometric, squad-based stealth strategy game, populated by a diverse, bizarre cast of idiosyncratic supernatural pirates. And based on what I’ve played thus far, it’s shaping up to be a fantastic time. It deftly balanced both fairly open-ended levels and tightly crafted encounter design, it gave me all the tools, the characters, and the room to do things my way, and it let me come up with fun, creative solutions as I stole my way through the Lost Caribbean.

From the creators of Desperados 3, a new stealth strategy game with ghost pirates and dangerous decisions is Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew.

 

Quote

 

Straight away, the visual aesthetic of Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is appealing, with supernatural characters and colourful spooky vibesy. The main character, Afia, has a sword permanently lodged in her chest, and she rips it out to use it as a weapon before putting it firmly back into place through her torso. As we have seen before, pirates in supernatural settings are a good fit, and the team has fun with it here.

 

While the team’s previous stealth-strategy game was grounded in reality, this one being fantastical allows for some creative ways to tackle each stage. Essentially, each area is like a puzzle filled with patrolling enemies, and you need to figure out the best way to take them down one by one without being seen. Each character in your crew has different abilities, and you’ll need to cleverly combine these to get the best outcome.

 

 

 

Undead magic and tight stealth tactics make Shadow Gambit a joy to play | PC Gamer

Mimimi Games has already reinvigorated the sneaky real-time tactics genre through the excellent Shadow Tactics and Desperados 3, but for the studio's first self-published game, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, the studio has really pushed the boat out. This piratical adventure is downright lavish, featuring a large crew of undead killers, each with their own magical quirks; a sentient ship with the power to manipulate time, which also serves as a hub for your crew; and a more open-ended structure, both within and between missions. 

 

The studio's ambition is aided by extremely solid foundations. If you've played its last two games—you really should—you'll recognise the core features. You'll guide your team of ne'er do wells through maps teeming with enemies, obstacles and opportunities for mayhem, employing their specialist skills to distract, manipulate and murder. Enemies are alert to noises, footprints and feature dynamic view cones that are affected by the time of day, obstacles and whether your skullduggerous pals are sneaking or not.

 

 

 

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is artfully blending ghost pirates & stealth tactics

We got to experience a little bit of undead privateering strategy from the developers of Shadow Tactics and Desperados 3.

 

Quote

 

Perhaps one of the most interesting things about Shadow Gambit right out of the gate is its premise. I mentioned prior that this one puts players in the role of pirates, but what I didn’t say is that they are undead. That’s right, ghost pirates!!! You take on the role of a navigator named Afia. You’ll quickly notice that Afia has a little bit of a full-size cutlass sword embedded her chest. That’s because it’s magic and she can use it to blink through time and space to stab her unfortunate foes. As I played through the game, I was also introduced to Suleidy, who is the crew’s half-plant, half-human doctor, capable of manifesting a single bush of vegetation wherever she pleases. This allows her to cut off guard sightlines and hide, even out in open fields. Many of the crew you’ll discover are similar in their supernatural existence and utility. Each of them brings a different offensive, defensive, or utility skillset to your roster.

 

Even the ship is alive in Shadow Gambit, which sits at the core of what characters like Afia are after in the first place. The Red Marley is a living ghost ship which once belonged to a dread pirate captain that captured great wealth and hid it somewhere no one has been able to find. Afia makes a deal with it because she wants to find that very treasure. After busting the ship free of its captors, we got to enjoy it as a home base for managing our party members and planning our next moves. That included a training ground where players were able to test out the abilities of new characters they collected for their crew. I wasn’t able to access all of its features, but I also saw a place to upgrade character abilities and make them stronger if you could collect some form of spiritual currency for the ship to use.

Critic Reviews

God is a Geek - Mick Fraser - 10 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is simply the best example of the genre MiMiMi helped create.

Saving Content - Scott Ellison II - 5 / 5

As someone who quicksaves vigorously, having a mechanic around that, tied to the game’s lore is so smart and encouraging. They absolutely own the stealth strategy genre, and they don’t miss. Mimimi Games is at their best when they are working with an original IP, and this being totally their own, makes this their best game yet. Mimimi’s third game with Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is sheer brilliance, where little victories lead into big smiles.

WhatIfGaming - Ali Hashmi - 10 / 10

Shadow Gambit The Cursed Crew is an exceptional stealth strategy game with a staggering amount of depth, variety, and creativity. Each crew member can radically change how you tackle different objectives and the increasing sandbox challenges force you think outside the box. It's Mimimi Games' best title yet, and there is a lot to love here with dozens of hours of meaningful content to sink your teeth into.

GameBlast - Alexandre Galvão - Portuguese - 9.5 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, by bringing together cohesive gameplay, an exceptional narrative and a level of challenge that allows for customization, provides yet another brilliant experience in the stealth strategy genre scene. It further solidifies Mimimi Games' status as a producer of outstanding and rewarding experiences in the stealth strategy genre. In a market perhaps not as vast, the company continues to captivate aficionados and newcomers alike, like a skilled privateer conquering new territories. A well-deserved toast, whether with rum or a glass of admiration, to this impressive title.

GameGrin - Conor McGuigan - 9.5 / 10

Shadow Gambit is a near-perfect game for stealth strategy fans. The new sandbox approach means that levels feel a little less curated than Mimimi's previous titles - but who cares when you're having this much fun?

GamingTrend - Ron Burke - 95 / 100

With innumerable improvements to the formula, Mimimi has delivered another hit. Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is a wonderful tactical title with an even better story than its predecessors. This is the formula perfected.

COGconnected - Mark Steighner - 92 / 100

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is a challenging and extremely entertaining stealth action and tactics game. It has a charming setting and story, with characters and mechanics that encourage creative and varied approaches to combat. There aren’t nearly enough great pirate games, so I’m glad Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew sailed into port.

AltChar - Adnan Kljajić - 90 / 100

Minus the periodic CTD issues, Shadow Gambit was one hell of a treasure hunt that took the cursed pirate fantasy and made the most of it. While perfection is unattainable, this game came really close to it and the good times are a promise to anyone willing to join the Marley and her crew.

GameSpot - Steve Watts - 9 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is a bountiful blend of stealth, strategy, and swashbuckling.

GamingBolt - Shubhankar Parijat - 9 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is an excellent game. With its wonderfully realized fantasy pirate setting, it instantly pulls you into its world, and with a combination of tight and perfectly implemented mechanics, excellently designed stealth sandboxes, and a colourful cast of characters that's an absolute blast to play as, it delivers a consistently fun and inventive adventure where the stealth, tactics, and experimentation never lose any of their charm, right up until the credits roll.

IGN - Jon Bolding - 9 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is dead-on stealth tactics-filled with character and vigor – a peak for the genre.

Kakuchopurei - Alleef Ashaari - 90 / 100

Shadow Gambit The Cursed Crew is one of the best strategy games of 2023 so far. It's a delightful experience that requires patience to enjoy. For fans of the stealth strategy genre, this game is a must-play, especially the unique save-scumming mechanic that distinguishes the game from other titles in the same genre.

NoobFeed - Jay Claassen - 90 / 100

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew seems to be another masterpiece from Mimimi Games and embodies their core values down to the last. You’ll get to live the life of a pirate from a top-down perspective, explore the various different islands, and experience a great story that’ll keep you sucked in for hours. Not to mention, the many different characters and mechanics keep things from going stale.

PlayStation Universe - John-Paul Jones - 9 / 10

Honestly, it feels churlish to chide Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew for being too similar to Mimimi Games previous output, not least because this enormously talented studio has a track record of kicking out superb stealth strategy offerings and has once again fashioned a relentlessly engaging tactical stealth effort that is absolutely at the apex of the genre. With Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew however, I'm not sure the concept has ever been executed with this degree of charm and that's something Mimimi Games should be roundly congratulated for.

SECTOR.sk - Oto Schultz - Slovak - 9 / 10

Aye me cursed undead Hearties! I hope ye are ready for a legendarrry treasure hunt. Captain Mordechai left us a trail of doubloons, that we buccaneers are ought to follow. We sail on this ghostly conscious ship Red Marley, bellies full of grog, singing chanteys all the while Inquisition is hunting down all lovely seadogs. We must assemble a crew of stealthy cursed hands, unleash powers of Marley's progress-saving memories, and kill the vicious inquisitor, Ignacia! Come fly a Jolly Roger with us and find all the promised treasure and glory!

The Games Machine - Emanuele Feronato - Italian - 9 / 10

The fantasy setting of Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew plays a decisive role in breathing new life into the Commandos-like genre, providing a series of new skills that will surprise newbies and fascinate veterans. The complete freedom of approach to the missions and the possibility to decide almost immediately with which character to face them makes this game unique, certainly the best of its kind and among the most interesting real-time strategy video games appeared lately. Charismatic protagonists and a superb level design complete the offer making it unmissable for those who want to be quick of mouse and quick of mind.

Wccftech - Chris Wray - 9 / 10

Undead Pirates XXX is an excellent game; the only downside is the reuse of maps. That downside is a little self-inflicted because if you're like me, you want to kill the named guards (named after the developers) and do whatever else gets you a badge (additional side-quest things), so you do it all. Still, this is an outstanding real-time tactics game and one I would recommend to anybody and everybody. Fans of the genre, and those new, you're in for a treat.

XboxEra - Jesse Norris - 9 / 10

The game is fantastic in every way.  Excellent gameplay, nice graphics, great sound, and a ton of variety in its objectives mean this absolute gem is one you should look into no matter when you’re reading this review.

Zoomg - Afshin Piroozi - Persian - 9 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is yet another great game by Mmimi Games which provides greater freedom in both the character selection and the way of completing its well-designed missions. Amazing cast of characters with unique abilities leads to true tactical approach and is followed by beautiful graphics and voice acting. only some minor issues like camera bugs or not so satisfying upgrade system prevent this game from being truly perfect but still it's a must play for Strategy game lovers.

Video Chums - A.J. Maciejewski - 8.8 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is one of the best games of the year. From its clever gameplay concoction to its gorgeous presentation, excellent sense of humour, and rewarding character abilities; this is one outstanding seafaring adventure.

IGN Italy - Stefano Castagnola - Italian - 8.7 / 10

Mimimi Games doesn't disappoint and yet again the German studio is able to deliver a very satisfying stealth-tactical experience. A must play for any fan of the genre.

PC Gamer - Dominic Tarason - 87 / 100

On par with its (excellent) predecessors, Shadow Gambit trades some focused design for deeply compelling piratical freedom.

INVEN - Youngseok Yang - Korean - 85 / 100

mimimi games successfully weaved fantasy and magic into pirate's age. While the UI and mission structure is a bit disappointing, unique art and attractive sound design, as well as strategy features with various sailors are making it a higher standard for 'stealth strategy' game.

MondoXbox - Valerio Tosetti - Italian - 8.5 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is a very entertaining game that, although not without some control flaws, kept us entertained for several hours. If you are a fan of tactical titles and have enjoyed games such as Commandos or Desperados, this game is definitely for you, but fans of the stealth genre will also find plenty to like. All in all, an excellent game that everyone should give a chance to.

RPG Fan - Bob Richardson - 85%

Amped-up level design and non-linearity in how to approach missions elevate this strategic title in ways not seen in its forebearers.

New Game Network - Ben Thomas - 82 / 100

With a great supernatural pirate theme and excellent character synergy, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is another outstanding stealth strategy game from Mimimi, though revisiting the mostly unchanged islands throws a small cloud over the otherwise vibrant treasure hunt.

Eurogamer - Matt Wales - 4 / 5

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is a cerebral but hugely characterful stealth tactics game filled with creativity and depth. And fun pirate stuff.

GBAtemp - Prans Dunn - 8 / 10

Standing out with its original universe, likeable cast and satisfying stealth strategy gameplay, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is a well-executed new venture for developer Mimimi Games.

GameLuster - Nirav Gandhi - 8 / 10

While I wish it allowed for more freedom, Shadow Gambit is an admirable meeting of stealth and strategy with just a drop of immersive sim.

GameMAG - Russian - 8 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew can't offer anything new to the classic gameplay style of Commandos/Desperados, but thanks to a nice setting the game still feels quite fresh, which is more than enough.

Shacknews - TJ Denzer - 8 / 10

I really like this niche that Mimimi has taken on in their games, and they seem to do it better with each go. Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew takes the character-driven stealth tactics I loved in Desperados and applies a ghost pirate theme to it in ways that are nearly always fun to play and beautiful to look at. It’s tough as nails and I wish I could experiment more before big choices, but I also think the concept allowed Mimimi to do some silly and spectacular things with its gameplay. Shadow Gambit sets a new standard for this studio, and I’ll be playing it until we get to see how they top themselves next.

Checkpoint Gaming - Charlie Kelly - 7.5 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is so close to being Mimimi's best. There are enjoyable diverse skills that make for some of the best stealth tactics gameplay we've ever seen. Enjoyable too is the colourful and often humorous side stories, along with plenty of feats to seek after for completionist obsessives. It may not have the most interesting main-story quest structure or be the most stable and bug-free at the moment but when Shadow Gambit gets moving it soars and sails, providing an addictive and fun tactics adventure.

Press Start - Camilla Wolfe - 7.5 / 10

With mildly eldritch themes, eccentric characters and tongue-in-cheek humour reminiscent of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew has a little something for every type of player. It's not perfect, but Shadow Gambit is just plain fun, and if it can convince a gung-ho, guns blazing player like me to give patience a stealth a go, I think a lot of other gamers out there would do well to dip their toes into these waters.

Try Hard Guides - Christian Harrison - 7.5 / 10

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is an exciting stealth strategy game that allows players to build a crew of varied personalities worth exploring. While the levels may be complicated and take a large chunk of time per mission, it’s enjoyable enough that fans of strategy and past Mimimi Games’ titles will likely enjoy the new time-based mechanics that allow for the ultimate strategy gameplay.

Gamersky - Chinese - 7.2 / 10

Playing Shadow Gambit feels like peeling an onion - as I progress from the outer layers to the core, taking down enemies in the city, and each achievement is small, often mixed with discomfort and bitterness.

GamesRadar+ - Jasmine Gould-Wilson - 3.5 / 5

Being a real-time stealth strategy game, I know the crewmates I choose can make or break a mission.

WellPlayed - Nathan Hennessy - 7 / 10

This spooky age of piracy has charming supernatural characters and visuals, but the hardcore stealth action on offer is an uncompromising, often unwieldy beast.

ACG - Jeremy Penter - Buy

"While the massive number of enemies can make some levels feel more mechanical than I liked, the end result is still worth jumping into if you like these kinds of games. Funny characters, cool powers, and a unique world that makes you ask "What if Pirate Ninjas were a thing?"

Rock, Paper, Shotgun - Katharine Castle - RPS Bestest Bests

A crowning achievement of open world stealth puzzling, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is fiendishly good fun. Easily Mimimi's best stealth strategy game yet.

I wish I didn't hate stealth so goddamn much, because this looks really cool. But seriously stealth to me feels like constant dice rolls with the odds stacked against me. I think I just find sitting around watching patterns emerging to be extremely tedious, so my dreams of just doing cool parkour shit to dance around the the lines of sight of enemies just never come true and I just fuck it up.

The quick save/load in this game helps with this as it almost instantaneous. So you can freely enact some ridiculous strategy and then roll it back right away to try something else.
