    Top-down hitman, that's what this stealth game feels like. It's fun, definitely when you're playing it with a friend, which makes the mediocre graphics and clumsy controls a bit easier to digest.

The gameplay is nothing special, you sneak around bland mission areas, take on extremely stupid AI, repeat basically the same objectives every mission, and earn money for a very sub par progression system. There isn't much of a story either, you're a thief stealing an old crime boss's stuff back from the cops, nothing to it. It's not the worst stealth game I've ever played, but the game very quickly became boring, and it's problems are readily apparent from the beginning. Only buy it if you're really hankering for a top-down stealth game, and can get past its shortcomings.… Full Review »

    Pros: Solid gameplay, the game feels very responsive for the most part and it keeps you in the action for most missions.
    Each mission is varied enough when it comes to objectives and there are multiple ways to complete each mission, complete with side-quests and collectibles.
    The game is fun to say the least but what about the development team? Short answer; they are very open to making this game fun and rewarding for anyone to play, and they are very open to critique and suggestions, I have personally spoken with some of the staff and they are staying on top of any bugs I have reported.

    Cons: Some standard bug related to the online mode (Which are being addressed)
    Player characters cannot be customized, I'll admit that this is a bit nitpicky but I like the bits and bobbles that come with making a character unique.

    In the end I would recommend this game especially at the price listed for it, I am looking forward to what this developer will be putting out in the future, and if I may say so I have faith they will deliver more fun games for us all to play.    … Full Review »
