Resulting as not enough damage? But I’ve analyzed that when I use charges, only the damage of the charges is counted. I used the most weak charge there that does around 70-88 damage. And when I used it, after inflicting 500 of total damage to a boss in one round, after going back it said I only did 80, fix this bug ### 4/5 — How come I reached the top spot but didn't get the Monk Robe? *2026-08-19, version 2.46.0* My account name is Huynhbin; I would like to request a Monk Robe from the publisher. Thank you. ### 4/5 — Shadow fight 2 *2026-08-18, version 2.46.0* Brilliant game but just very hard to level up ### 1/5 — Hey probably move where the ad is i just wanna end ghe match and get some gold not watch a 30 second *2026-08-18, version 2.46.0* Ad ### 4/5 — Siuu *2026-08-18, version 2.46.0* Siuuuuu ### 1/5 — Adds *2026-08-18, version 2.46.0* Adds after every single fight ### 1/5 — Не работает звук *2026-08-17, version 2.46.0* На iphone 13 mini, в игре отсутствует звук, вообще ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Угробили хорошую игру *2026-08-26, version 2.46.0* Понапихали доната и рекламы, играть невозможно стало. Как реклама заканчивается, все зависает и приходится перезаходить ### 1/5 — Детские воспоминания *2026-08-25, version 2.46.0* По детским воспоминаниям игра на 5 звезд, а в реальности из-за не уважения к игроку с рекламой и донатом получает макс 1 звезду ### 1/5 — Ai cheats *2026-08-24, version 2.46.0* Shadow gets cheated out of a lot of his wins due to the game creators lack of attention to detail. A lot of “animations “ mess up attacks which is understandable until u realize it doesn’t benefit you much during attacks however the npc can and will knock you clean out of your animation on any level above normal. Still a five star game tho. ### 1/5 — Wow *2026-08-22, version 2.46.0* You have to be extremely good just to do anything but you can’t upgrade with out betting people and witch all the ais are way way good 😂 great game ### 1/5 — мусор *2026-08-21, version 2.46.0* зуйня рекламная с бесконечным донатом рекламой и хакерами ### 1/5 — Дно *2026-08-20, version 2.46.0* Донатная помойка ### 1/5 — . *2026-08-20, version 2.46.0* Game như db, quảng cáo thì lắm ### 1/5 — Не рекомендую *2026-08-19, version 2.46.0* За 2 часа игры посмотрел полтора часа рекламы, в детстве казалось хорошей игрой, но это тот же самый рекламный и донатный кал, который так и хочет высосать с тебя деньги, так и подстраивая алгоритмы игры против тебя если ты не платишь. ### 1/5 — Полная муть *2026-08-19, version 2.46.0* Раньше была отличной игрой, а теперь сборка рекламы! Разработчики очень постарались максимально испоганить хорошую игру. ### 1/5 — trash *2026-08-18, version 2.46.0* trash ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — rating *2026-08-28, version 2.46.0* pretty good but why do i have to download so many things just download it at the beginning ### 5/5 — дичь *2026-08-25, version 2.46.0* не реґает ### 5/5 — Top 10 mobile game *2026-08-22, version 2.46.0* Very fun to play ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-08-22, version 2.46.0* A classics in my opinion ### 5/5 — Update *2026-08-20, version 2.46.0* We need update on Mac OS Tahoe 26.6.2 to run the game ### 5/5 — This game is very fun *2026-08-20, version 2.46.0* The game is very fun. I think everyone should play and after all, it’s a good game.👍👍 ### 5/5 — классная *2026-08-18, version 2.46.0* классная игра, но не на весь экран на 12 айфоне, а еще я очень хотела достигнуть магии, но каждый раз бросала игру, до сих пор у меня осталась эта маленькая мечта, я не знаю как открыть магию ### 5/5 — Very slow gameplay and buttons are slightly not working or sticking and take so much time to loading *2026-08-17, version 2.46.0* Need gameplay updates ### 5/5 — Great work *2026-08-17, version 2.46.0* First of all, great work. Shadow Fight has always been an excellent game in my opinion. It features a wide variety of weapons and creative skills, and I believe I will keep supporting it.However, the developers could optimize the coordination between the joystick and action buttons. Sometimes I cannot perform the attacks I intend to pull off. Besides, I think the energy‑bar mechanic could be removed. Players’ gameplay should not be restricted by energy limits.🥰 ### 5/5 — Better than Mortal Kombat Mobile *2026-08-15, version 2.46.0* Being a super big Mortal Kombat fan like me means hung experience with most games. IVE played mortal Kombat mobile, and it’s mostly fun, but this is a while other level --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
