What is METAL GEAR & METAL GEAR 2: Solid Snake?

These two top-down stealth-action games center on infiltrating enemy territory without being spotted. You move through guarded areas while avoiding combat; in the second game, Snake can crouch, lure guards by tapping walls, and use radar to locate enemies. Its story explores Big Boss's motives.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy early stealth games that reward patience
  • +you value a more developed story in the sequel

Not for you if...

  • −you prefer fast, combat-heavy action to cautious infiltration
  • −you want clear directions rather than trial-and-error exploration
