Critic reviews
- 6.0Stealth Inc. 2 is by no means a bad 2D puzzle platformer, but it doesn't stand out in a genre which has had some impressive entries in the past year. Attempts to improve the experience of its predecessor by adding an overworld feel more like padding than an increase in scope and many of its levels necessitate foreknowledge to complete them successfully.
- Stealth Inc. 2: A Game of Clones is a fantastic follow-up to the brilliant Stealth Inc.: A Clone in the Dark. With smart, stealthy puzzle-platforming the nature of this title you can expect some fun, sometimes frustrating, but always rewarding gameplay ahead of you if you purchase this game!
- 7.5The core of Stealth Inc 2 is just as fun and compelling as the original, and the new gadgets add a unique twist to each section of levels. While the lack of cross-save is disappointing, it’s really the overworld that holds the game back, and it felt like the broccoli that I had to get through in order to earn the cookies that were the test chambers.
- The PlayStation 4 version of Stealth Inc. 2: A Game of Clones is a great example of how not to port a game to a new system. ...Curve Studios managed to increase the frustration level of a title that already had the potential to elicit annoyance. From the clunky user-interface, to its seemingly downgraded visuals, to the fact that the most punishing mechanic is mapped to the largest button, everything about Stealth Inc. 2 on PlayStation 4 seems to indicate that some extra focus testing was necessary.
- Despite a couple of minor bugs and a few questionable game elements, Stealth Inc 2: A Game of Clones is a fun and well-made game that will please most players. It definitely requires patience to enjoy, but I prefer more traditional stealth games that reward players with stealth kills and combat additions instead of new platforming gadgets.
- 9.0Stealth Inc. 2 delivers on story, looks and gameplay without comprising one for the other. Fans of stealth games, or even 2D sidescrollers in general would be doing themselves a disservice by not playing this game.
