A stealth FPP action game designed for multiplayer action. In Deceive Inc. we play as spies who carry out tasks in different parts of the world, competing with each other for which of them manages to complete the mission first.
Deceive Inc is a stealth action game, developed for multiplayer action. It was created by the Sweet Bandits Studios team, made up of former employees of such companies as Beenox, Frima Studio, Gearbox Software and Ubisoft. Game was published by Tripwire Interactive.
Plot
Deceive Inc takes us on a journey to the universe in which the Deceive Inc. agency managed to gain a complete monopoly on the spy market. We take on the role of secret agents performing various tasks and competing with each other to see who will be the first to complete a mission.
Game mechanics
In Deceive Inc. we observe the action from a first person perspective (FPP). We take on the role of spies, who are differentiated by their appearance, preferred weapons and skills. Missions in different parts of the world are the main attraction of the game. We break into closely guarded places and steal objects or data indicated by the headquarters.
While completing the objectives we use a wide range of gadgets straight out of a James Bond movie. These include a bulletproof umbrella and a holographic watch that can copy the appearance of other people. The latter allows us to go undercover without arousing the suspicion of staff or... other agents.
We should not forget that we are not the only ones sent on missions. There are other agents on our heels constantly, trying to carry out the same tasks with the same range of capabilities. As the first-come, first-served principle applies here, you'll have to be quick to play, or you'll have to take out your rivals in order to succeed. You have to be careful not to be unmasked and not to fall victim to the opponents yourself.
Game modes
Deceive Inc lets you play in multiplayer mode only.
Technical aspects
The colourful graphics of Deceive Inc. is in an eye-catching, cartoon style.

ZTGD: 8 / 10 by Terrence Johnson
Deceive Inc has a new and unique premise and an engaging gameplay loop but its lackluster combat which is going to be inevitable in each match just pulls this otherwise killer spy simulator and sends it out to Die Another Day. While it has the benefit of being unlike any of the other hum-drum deathmatch games out there at the moment, I just hope that it can find a large enough player base to stand the test of time.
WhatIfGaming: 7 / 10 by Rizwan Anwer
Decieve Inc is a game I really wanted to like, but it comes into the camp of either love at first sight or a game you buy and forget and play with friends once in a while. My time with the game was enjoyable when it worked, but long matchmaking times, uneven and perplexing gunplay and unexplainable lag marred the enjoyment for me.
