Absolutely adorable art style and characters, witty writing and Kyle is the goodest boi who deserves more time in the limelight. uwu

For a game that can be finished in an hour or less, I was left wanting more. One major flaw needs correcting - if you're gonna Metal Gear Solid it up, go all the way and make the radar show coworker positions, and make a button that toggles it (or the whole HUD if necessary) because it obscures a lot of the upper left corner which blindsided me once or twice.

Development going in a bad direction ever since the big update that introduced the new items. Most items are completely unbalanced and too expensive while contracts pay too little money and EXP, ghosts have no identity anymore and scam you regularly by having random behaviors and showing evidence that blatantly don't correspond to their types, community is toxic and plagued with griefers who blame their nonsense on you, abuse the TV remotes and hold matches hostage, and non-English speakers on EU servers.

A cutesy if perhaps a bit basic Zelda-esque. I like the logogramic approach to storytelling and tutorializing that simplify it, but the lack of diagonal movement outside of riding the goat and some other small jank with the controls mars it a fair bit.

Breaks its own rules constantly, enemies have x-ray vision except when they don't (dogs don't consistently sniff you through cover either), gunfights are wasteful because nothing is turn-based, controls, UI are janky and atrocious, sometimes can't kill enemies without alarming and failing a mission despite fully skilled stealth kills.

Devs have no clue how to make a stealth tactics game and REALLY need to pay more attention to what Mimimi, makers of Shadow Tactics and Desperados 3, did.

Near-perfect remaster! With just a few more quality-of-life tweaks and improvements, THIS is what a remaster is all about!

Played in 2019, it's 95% like my old PAL PS2 copy, minus the redone menus and ever so slightly perceptible changes in audio mixing that has to be compared side-by-side to notice. Polished port at its finest.

If you enjoyed Pyro Studios's Commandos series, this is the game for you. It's basically just Commandos but with an actual plot besides just backstabbing baddies, refreshingly updated mechanics, 5 playable characters all with distinctly unique skills and personalities and a lovely soundtrack to bring out that good old feudal Japan atmosphere. Heartily recommended and curiously replayable to see what other crazy solutions you can surprise yourself with besides what first one you found that worked.

Got false-banned for running Discord in the background, apparently.

Ticket got a canned autoreply then closed.

1st call to tech support yielded same exact scripted response then guy hangs up on me.

2nd call gets me a lady who was kind enough to escalate me to another female supervisor (not the infamous "Earl" I've been hearing about) who just repeated the same "we don't overturn bans" shpiel.

0/10, conned out of good money for a game whose anticheat routinely ignores actual cheaters and only bans non-cheaters.

Excruciatingly boring, disrespects its parent franchise, no Michael Ironside and cancerous Uplay for the multiplayer.

Stay away.

Pretty addictive and challenging, your reflexes will really be put to the test as you figure out how to chain rockets together for those massive combos.
