Gloomwood

Sneaking and hiding

Gloomwood is a stealth survival horror set in a cursed Victorian city, drawing on immersive sims and classics like Thief and Resident Evil. You sneak, scrounge scarce resources and use eccentric weapons while exploring a dark, secret-filled world.

Hitman: Absolution

Tactical depth

Hunted by his own agency, Agent 47 sneaks through tightly built, detailed levels where disguises, Instinct and creative kills beat open gunfights. Absolution leans harder than earlier entries into a cinematic, gritty revenge story.

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin

Tactical depth

Agent 47 is pulled out of retirement and must plan silent hits across sprawling levels from Sicily to Japan, using disguises, poison, and patience to reach his targets. Missions offer many approaches but punish mistakes harshly, all backed by Jesper Kyd's sweeping score.

Dishonored: Definitive Edition

Sneaking and hiding

As the assassin Corvo you sneak or fight your way through the plague-ridden, steampunk city of Dunwall, using supernatural powers like blinking across rooftops. Every mission can be solved quietly or violently, shaping the world and ending; this edition bundles all the DLC.

Dishonored 2

Sneaking and hiding

A first-person immersive sim where you play Emily or Corvo, using supernatural powers to sneak or fight through intricately layered levels. Standout missions like the Clockwork Mansion and a chaos system that reacts to your playstyle make every approach feel meaningful.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell

Tactical depth

As NSA operative Sam Fisher you creep through shadows, using night vision and gadgets to stay unseen across tense, linear and demanding missions. A landmark of the stealth genre with a groundbreaking light-and-shadow system.

Hitman: Contracts

Sneaking and hiding

A feverish Agent 47 relives past hits across grim, rain-soaked levels where disguises, patience and creative kills beat brute force. Its oppressive atmosphere and Jesper Kyd score make it the bleakest entry in the series.
