About
"Shift Legacy Collection" is a puzzle-platformer game that includes the first four titles of the Shift series. The games are known for their monochromatic visuals and innovative shifting mechanism, which allows players to flip the game environment and turn obstacles into pathways. Over 100 creative levels with increasing complexity are presented across the four games, introducing new elements such as lightbulbs, checkered barriers, Metroidvania-style backtracking, and multi-character coordination.
- The Shift Legacy Collection brings back fond memories and nostalgia from childhood, providing a fun and satisfying puzzle platforming experience.
- The collection captures the essence of the original Flash games, with well-designed levels and a classic gameplay mechanic that remains enjoyable today.
- It's a great value for fans of the series, offering all four games plus additional content, and works well on both PC and Steam Deck.
- The collection suffers from various bugs, including issues with save states and performance, which can detract from the overall experience.
- The absence of the ending song in Shift 4 is a significant disappointment, leaving a sense of incompleteness in the game.
- While nostalgic, the collection feels a bit rough around the edges and could benefit from more remastering to enhance the overall package.

However, there are issues with the execution, as some players report lag and the ending song not playing, detracting from the overall experience. Despite these problems, the improved music quality and full-screen presentation are praised, making the game still worth recommending.

“The only problem I have with this collection is that Shift 4's true ending is broken, as there is a lot of random lag, and the ending song doesn't play for some reason.”

“But the biggest reason I was excited to see this come back again was the song at the end of shift 4, and at present you get nothing.”
