Grab The Games: Stealth Inc 2: A Game of Clones

Stealth Inc 2 is a really good surprise in the platformer genre. This game literally has it all! But what is Stealth Inc 2? In Stealth Inc 2, you play the role of a clone escaping a sinister and high-tech testing facility. Stealth Inc 2 tests both your brain and your reflexes over 60 varied levels linked together in a sprawling overworld. Death is never more than a few moments away, but one of the few advantages of being a clone is that death isn't all that permanent.

With no loading screens and no lives to worry about, players are encouraged to use their inevitable demise as a learning tool as they navigate lasers, homicidal robots and terrifying bosses in the ultimate hostile work environment. To begin with the very first thing I loved about this game is how balanced is the story of the game with the platform aspects. Everything is equivalent and under one game. You will definitely notice the cutscenes that introduce us the story and after them... more fun more puzzles more levels.


Furthermore, the game is not linear at all. There aren't the classic levels here. Everything is evolving and changing and the whole game feels like a big adventure with a constant flow. Also, there is no death in this game and you will wonder why that is! This happens thanks to your clones that will save you and sometimes sacrifice their (clone) lives for you and aid your escape. But the fun doesn't stop here. You will be able to test all the latest gadgets. The gadgets are part of the game like never before. You'll use your gadgets to not only solve puzzles but also open up new paths and discover the games many secret and hidden areas.



Another feature that I liked is the customization feature. You can customize your clone with various hats and other body accessories you will find during your adventures. However, there is one negative for me that I should mention. It doesn't harm the game in any way but it something that I personally didn't like. The only think that I didn't like is that the character moves like in a slow motion, I would prefer some more natural movement for my character and also sometimes it is a little bit confusing of where to go or what to do!

To sum it all up, this game is a must have for all the platform genre lovers. It has some really unique aspects that enhance the gameplay experience and makes the game worth playing more and more and reaches the end of it. Highly recommended by me.
