Game pageGunpoint: turn the building into your accomplice
If simply avoiding guards feels too passive, turn the building against them. Gunpoint centres on the delight of outwitting security by changing connections. Reviews enjoy the freedom to make their own mischievous solution work rather than merely discover a prescribed route.
It is not an entirely solemn spy story. Reviewers enjoy witty exchanges and dry jokes between puzzles. That makes it a candidate for an evening of thought without an unbrokenly heavy mood.
What makes it fun
Turn a door into a trap
Rewire a door with Crosslink, and it can do more than open a route. You can shut a guard in a room or swing the door into their path. Working out when to trigger it becomes part of your infiltration plan.
Choose your way through
You can slip past the guards or use the building's devices to mess with them. Once you know a route, trying it again without hurting anyone gives you a different puzzle.
Dry wit in the dialogue
Between break-ins, you choose your replies in text conversations with clients. The dry exchanges add another pleasure to the time spent working out the wiring.
