About This Game
Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution fills the gap between the original Shantae (2002) and Shantae: Risky's Revenge (2010), following Shantae as she works to protect Sequin Land from a new and dangerous scheme orchestrated by her pirate nemesis, Risky Boots. This time, Risky has gotten hold of a secret subterranean device capable of rotating and rearranging the continent itself — plunging Sequin Land into chaos and opening up a fresh supply of coastal cities to plunder. By mastering this same technology with the help of the Relic Hunters, players can create new paths through environments and find the leverage needed to turn Risky's own plan against her.
