really fun stealth games, bunch of ways to approuch a situation

good

great stuff! unfortunatly I play it on a LAPTOP, so it takes a while for things to load

This game is so good I was waiting for the catch. There sorta is one, which is unfortunate but there seems to be steady progress! In any case, it's the best game out of this decade I've played to date, which is bold, but it's just that damn good. Addicting, intense, incredible atmosphere and graphics. I'll check every day for the rest of my life for updates If I have to.

Do NOT let the constables see my laboratory. 10/10 by far my favourite immsim of all time.

Super good blend of survival horror and im sim. It's like how in Thief there were those supernatural zombie levels, but they decided to combine it with the normal sneaking levels that also flows continuously level like in classic Resident Evil. I guess this also comes from Souls game influence where you clear out levels and unlock shortcuts along the way which is always satisfying, but it has limited resources like a true survival horror. This and Fallen Aces are my favorite indie im sims I've played so far!

Fantastic spiritual successor to Thief series (the ones by Looking Glass, not the crappy remake), one of my most nostalgic games from my youth. Does a great job of staying true to its clear inspiration, while also changing up the formula quite a bit and refining the somewhat dated aspects of the original Thief games. I love the dark gothic/steam punk aesthetic of the game and the quasi-open world level design and the voice acting and the VFX...just all of it is a great package. I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing what this game is like with its full release, because each update has been killing it consistently in delivering quality after quality addition to the base game. That being said, my only major criticism of the game is the research update. I really dig the overall concept for it, but its incredibly tediously designed with regards to hauling body parts back for actual researching. It's not challenging, its just annoying. It would be much better if there could be a purchasable meatsack or something that would only take up like 4 slots in your inventory case where you could store all the body parts you find out in the world from a corpse. That and the actual serums you craft last WAY too little time for me to really consider it to be all that worthwhile with the sheer amount of effort that goes into actually creating them. They should easily last like 4 or 5 times longer, otherwise I don't see myself bothering in continuing to craft them at all.
