He is coming, stalking criminals in the spirit world and the real world. A possessed man is coming, a voodoo mask in his chest and lines of power in his back. Shadow Man is coming, trailing evil from Liveside to Deadside. To stop an apocalypse. To save your soul.

The value story

August 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $3.99. Its cuts run 55 percent off as a rule. There have been 36 in the 5 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. It becomes a BANGER at $16.15, a level the record has reached 36 times.

On value it sits in the top 7 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 68 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 89 percent. It outscores the games it most resembles, including Tomb Raider I (1996) ($6.99, scores 56) and Tomb Raider: Anniversary ($8.99, scores 63).

5 of the 272 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2021 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 86 percent of the 222 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 16 percent of everything written about it.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, so it runs on the handheld without fiddling.

Honestly suprised how quickly I breeze through the game after all those years The bosses that got cut from the original caught me by surprise Gameplay is very fun and smooth overall Adding the Light Soul in The Fogometers is a cool addition, so the extra 166 cadeaux have a point beyond completionism The Playrooms music is still cringe Don't listen to it

I love the game since it was released and played it on different systems. The added stuff in this remastered version was not needed. Others who loved the original will know what downed the fun. Buy it when on sale and enjoy !!
