Deceive Inc. is a joy of a game to play and is definitely something that will keep you coming back for more and more. While it does subvert from the typical FPS formula of bust in guns blazing. Deceive Inc. is a game that makes you think about your actions and what you do and forces players to think creatively but still not get caught. This game is definitely not for someone who was looking for a simple Overwatch clone, but it is for someone who wants something different and definitely something cheesy.
Rapid Reviews UK: 4 / 5 by Clare Bailey
Go undercover as the world’s greatest secret agents in this multiplayer game of social stealth and subterfuge. Disguise yourself as anyone to blend into the crowd, deploy high-tech gadgets to gain the upper hand, and extract the package before the competition takes it for themselves! No trick is too dirty when you work for DECEIVE INC.
Hey Poor Player: 3.5 / 5 by Shane Boyle
Despite launching in a state that could really use an injection of some new content already, Deceive Inc. is a genuinely fresh and fun take on the asymmetrical multiplayer space. The tension and paranoia of the opening stages of each match are unlike anything else offered by the genre right now, and even though the tension of those initial moments is belittled slightly by the frequently chaotic endings, the gameplay hook remains strong enough that I’m keen to keep playing and getting familiar with the rest of the roster of agents. If you can look past the cash shop and are okay with buying a product on the basis that it serves as a strong foundation for something that could become pretty special, then Deceive Inc. might just be worth your time.
Deceive Inc. Description
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.
