What players say
81% of 7,877 reviews are positive · 53% of 26 in the last 30 days
Players praise the mix of disguise-based stealth and gunplay, along with the retro spy style. Their main complaint is that development has stopped and public matches are hard to find, though some report playing on private, player-hosted servers.
