Synopsis
This is a first person stealth adventure game, in which you a trying to stop opposing forces from harming you and people around you. The game features six active powers, four passive powers, or enhancements, and forty bone charms, which grant the player supernatural perks such as increasing the duration of rat possession. This is useful towards yourself because you can upgrade your powers to do more damage, longer duration's, etc.

Gameplay
The gameplay is very fun due to how i love stealth games. This game is ALL about stealth, you have to kill or not kill guards which brings in more guards and its all about what you do and how you do it. Stealth plays a huge role in this game and the developers made the "powers" you get correspind to the stealth in the game, which i love how the synced them.

Graphics
Graphics are pretty good, considering how good some games have very good graphics. I would rate them to an 8/10 for their graphics but i have noticed that sometimes when some of the AI talks their mouths don't move. Other than that it has some decent graphics!

Controls
The controls are a different story, i like them but they take some time getting used to and they work nothing like universal controls for other big sellers. Although the controls are not the greatest, you can still get used to them and it maximizes your playing ability.

My final thoughts
This is a very fun game, and i would recommend anyone that likes stealth games like hitman, ghost recon, and any other stealth games to buy this game because it is mainly focused on stealth, thanks for reading my review and i hope you enjoy the game as much as i did!

Overall rating: 8/10
