Shadow Warrior is a FPS game made in the late 90's using the same engine as Duke Nukem 3D and other popular games of the time. The protagonist of the game is Lo Wang, a master ninja assassin, or "Shadow Warrior". Although it was a first person shooter, much of the action, especially in the early part of the game, was focused on the use of your katana. Shadow Warrior also differed from other 3D Realms games in the fact that there were occasional puzzles you needed to solve before progressing to the next level. Other than the katana, Lo Wang's weapons include ninja themed weapons such as Shurikens. Guns were also available and were the primary weapons later in the game, they include Uzis and a railgun. In addition, the head and heart of certain enemies can be used. Just as in Duke Nukem 3D, Lo Wang had many taunts available to fling at defeated enemies.
