What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
But probably the best part about the whole game is that its graphical upgrades do not detract at all from gameplay; it still plays nearly exactly like the original Stealth Bastard, albeit with more to do/explore and making the optional gadgets that you can unlock in the first game an actual use.
A clone that has to save other clones and a bad guy trying to stop him is maybe not the best story, but the narative is done very well.
Beneath its dark humor and cartoonish art style lies a tightly designed experience that demands precision, creativity, and patience.
For the few poor clones who haven't yet had a crack at this, if you enjoy puzzle platformers with a sense of old-school unlocks and difficulty progression that makes you grit your teeth every time you die and gives you that immense drive of "I WILL BEAT THIS GAME" with every new run, you will definitely enjoy this.
The soundtrack reinforces the tension, alternating between pulsing electronic beats during moments of danger and subdued ambient tracks when exploring.
The optionsmenu is a bit limited but offers everything you need: Resolution, fullscreen, a bit AA, rebindable controls for keyboard and controller, brightness, as well as two volume sliders.
