Video game release schedules are ridiculously packed with great games at this point in time, which means that invariably, some gems are always going to get lost in the shuffle. 2021 had a large number of such games that either didn’t do as well as they should have, or just didn’t do well at all, period, and here, we’re going to shine a light on a few such games that deserve more of your attention.

CYBER SHADOW

With its gorgeous pixel art aesthetic, stiff challenge, and nail-biting action, Cyber Shadow, which launched in the early goings of 2021, delivered a thrilling 2D action platformer that no fan of the classic Ninja Gaiden games should miss out. There’s been no shortage of indie games that have tried their hand at that particular style of action, and while quite a few of them have done so successfully, very few have touched the same heights as Cyber Shadow.
