Slip past an enemy or take them out. Finding your own approach through a location, then executing it cleanly, is the ninja fantasy this game delivers.
What makes it fun
Kill or slip past
You can assassinate guards or slip past their sight. Leaving them alive gives you another way through the same area.
See what guards can detect
Guard sightlines and noise appear on screen, while light and shadow offer further clues. You can read what might give you away before crossing a passage.

A typical run
Watch the cues for light and noise, then decide when to move. Reading the danger on screen and slipping into a waiting opening is central to its feel.
Core systems
True Stealth Experience
Slip through unseen or assassinate enemies in your way. Unlock tools and techniques to choose your approach.
What sets it apart
Players find pleasure both in passing unseen and in eliminating enemies. Each section is a chance to test which approach you prefer.
Learning curve and difficulty
One reviewer initially found the controls awkward and still felt some clumsiness after gaining tools and learning the mechanics. Even so, they became quicker and more deft, finding satisfaction in that progress.
What longtime players say
Players who returned after the original or a completed run describe enjoying the stealth again. These impressions come from actual replays.
What players like
Reviewers enjoy changing tools and tactics to infiltrate in their own way.
Common complaints
Players report frustration when movement or inputs near walls or vents do not work as intended.
Who it’s for
For players who enjoy considering tools and alternative routes before exposing themselves.
Who might not enjoy it
It is less suited to players mainly seeking the thrill of a head-on brawl. Consider whether working out how to hide and pass through is enjoyable in itself.
