Shadow - Transform any device into a supercharged gaming machine.

User for about 6 months, it's a really great product when it works. Three times I've had issues on a Friday evening / Saturday and there is (was?) No weekend technical support, so my issues wouldn't get resolved til Monday, meaning a few weekends I wasn't able to play games at all.

Twice my shadow has been unfixable, all I did was play games on it, forcing them to reset my device so that I lost everything I had saved on

Pros:

Low latency, very high end

Cons:

VPNs banned, geolocation based in France, so sites/services will default to French and stuff like paypal won't work. Forced to reset twice

It's a french startup, very promising. I don't have time to play anymore, but one of my friends has been in their beta program and been using it for more than 6 months now : the result is properly amazing 🎉(At least on the French network. I don't know about the recent US launch perfs.) He was playing Overwatch (a high end very dynamic multiplayer fps) at full graphics without any latency. Thanks to their streaming device, the Shadow Box and a mouse + keyboard. Very surprised not to find it on Product Hunt 😲I hunted it because today Product Hunt talked about the last Windows future cloud gaming streaming platform announcement... and it felt a bit low compared to what I've seen Shadow doing RIGHT NOW... Good luck to the Shadow team, this is clearly the future of computers, and not only for gamers !

I use the service in Colorado (Just south of Denver), but it's supposed to only work in California. Your experience may vary, but mine has been good enough to easily play games like Fallout (with tons of mods) without issue, but it was slightly too delayed (I'm well outside the region it's designed to work in.) for competitive games like OverWatch.

Pros:

It runs pretty much any game smoothly on pretty much any computer, phone, or tablet.

Cons:

Requires good internet and some computers don't handle wifi well.

Hello everyone! We are so grateful for the recommendation and glad that we have been Hunted! We will be here in the comments and discussion section answering any questions you may have.

A lot of friends have it too (in France) and they are really happy with this service. They have a FTTH network for most of them, but they reported it works OK over a 4G network too (40-150mbps)

using it as my everyday/everything computer since 6+months, it's a delight. "Arrives at friend's house, install shadow app on a small/old computer, plug ps4 controller, play with friends with extreme+ graphics and 60 fps. "

Dedicated Shadow user for almost a year. Let's be clear: I would have not finished CupHead, HellBlade and other games without Shadow. The ability to play all the games I bought during Steam Summer Sales years after years (a lot....) and on Humble Bundle (even more....) on literally anything is amazing.

I commute a lot and playing in the Uber is incredible. And when I'm tired, playing in my bed is the best experience possible.

Pros:

The simplest way to play AAA titles

Cons:

CSGO is challenging to configure

I was one of the march backers and I used it for 6 months. I had to cancel my subscription because I couldn't find time to play, but the results were astonishing. It worked perfectly with no latency perceivable. My ISP setup is 200Mbps/50Mbps FTTH

The best cloud-based solution for gaming. Period.

The service is amazing, completely feels like a local ompute!

Pros:

Gives you a super powerfull pc - amazing image quality, super low .

Cons:

Requires a very stable internet connection, and depending on the resolution you use, up to 50mbps
