Technical aspects

Never Stop Sneakin', released on PC, Switch and iOS, is a stealth action game. The game was developed by Humble Hearts studio, known from the popular Dust: An Elysian Tail.

Plot

The game's scenario revolves around a villain known as Amadeus Guildenstern, who, using a time machine, goes back in time and kidnaps all American presidents. We play the role of an agent, who receives the task of rescuing them.

The game is kept in a humorous convention and regularly laughs at tropes of the stealth genre, especially the Metal Gear Solid series.

Mechanics

Never Stop Sneakin', released on PC, Switch and iOS, is a classic stealth game, in which we observe the events from a camera placed high above the head of the character. A comedic story does not mean that the game offers easy gameplay. The hero we're directing is not very resistant to damage, and the maps are full of armed enemies.

The priority is to avoid detection. If we get spotted, we have to neutralize enemies in no time. The game also has numerous fights with powerful bosses - overcoming each of them requires different tactics.

Technical aspects

The visuals are the game's strong point. The authors opted for retro style, but they did it in a very unusual way. Never Stop Sneakin' offers 3D graphics inspired by the first PlayStation. We get slightly angular figures and textures with clearly visible pixels.
