Shaman King: Power of Spirit Critic Reviews

The game remains faithful to the source material and blends two distinct gameplay styles into an entertaining hybrid. Fans of the series should find this a great addition to their Shaman King collection.

The humor and style will charm many, but those looking for a hardcore experience in any of the game's genres should look elsewhere.

SK's not for everyone, but fans should be beside themselves.

Run-of-the-mill fighting and stripped-down strategy sequences make Shaman King a fairly drab ride that's only recommendable to extreme fans of the series.

Nothing about the game is appealing or enjoyable at all. Of course, the saving grace for all mediocre fighting games is the two-player mode, so- wait- there's no two-player mode? Who releases a fighting game without a two-player mode??

A wholly inadequate inexperience that offers no real gameplay, unless periodically jumping between pressing square a thousand times constitutes a new type of strategy or action I'm unfamiliar with.

It's not an awful game, just shallow and aimless.

Those wanting an action game will be disappointed at the lack of action while the strategy and RPG aspects are too shallow for the sophisticated gamer.

An interesting fusion of two very different game types - it's just a shame they've been cobbled together so crudely.
