US, January 29, 2008 - The follow-up to 2006's Shadowgrounds, Frozenbyte brings back the frantic alien-blasting arcade-style shooting that made the first so entertaining with Shadowgrounds Survivor. For anyone who played the original you'll find quite a bit familiar here as it has basically the same background story and many of the same enemy types as in the first. That being said, you still get a quality top-down arcade shooter that's been improved in many ways, and it serves as a nice break if you've been slogging through some of the more complex releases of 2007's holiday season.
Maybe I've just been playing the wrong kind of games lately, but Frozenbyte's latest caught me off-guard with its mindless yet entertaining action. It had moments that brought me back to the days of playing Smash TV and Robotron 2084 at bowling alley arcades. Once the nostalgia faded, I was happy to find the game still played great. Shadowgrounds Survivor isn't anywhere close to as difficult as the top-down shooters of yore, but it's an excellent throwback title to a type of gameplay that doesn't require 600 hours of dedication to get to the good part, memorization of unnecessarily complicated technology trees, or the need to page through thousands of lines of dialogue options to get anything accomplished. It's simple, enjoyable, pretty, and perhaps best of all, it's cheap.
