Hands down the best Shantae game in the series. No other Shantae game even comes close. Not even Seven Sirens due to there being too many greyish areas and lack of Jake Kaufmans music being present. Pirates Curse may strip Shantae of her genie abilities but definitely a turn for the better. She can now use fluid pirate gear to tackle puzzles and challenges. The gameplay, story, visual style, music, and character development is some of the best in the series. Its also the first time you get to work with Risky which is nice unlike past games where she is always the arch nemisis. :). Pick it up for switch physically if you ever get the chance. I was able to get it for a cheap 800 dollars off ebay with it being limited run.
