Stealth BASTARD: Tactical Espionage Arsehole | Android
It is the porting from PlayStation 3 and PsVita to crown a story that began in 2011, when it first appeared on PC, in the form of a free prototype, and later on Android devices. It offered a basic package of twenty-eight levels that rocketed into the hundreds thanks to additions created by users through an editor, for a simply exorbitant amount of content: 1,700 downloadable levels! The result is an unmissable delight for anyone who doesn't hate to death the mix of platform, puzzle and stealth mechanics represented by what, very aptly, the developers themselves have always defined as "the illegitimate child of Super Meat Boy & Metal Gear Solid". Furthermore, it offers control over a horde of clones intent on trying to escape the deadly traps that put them in situations like lab rats. There is no voice that accompanies the player's actions in a sarcastic way, but there are writings that appear on the walls of the environments, sometimes offering advice, but most of the time mocking mistakes in a macabre tone. This is part of the intriguing personality outlined thanks to a retro but also extremely elegant style, an excellent use of lighting to paint atmosphere and gameplay and sound effects with a brutal impact. The fundamental element, son of Kojima, is the stealth component: Find the exit from a long series of levels by activating terminals to open doors, perhaps even lingering to recover secret objects and/or exceed record times for solving puzzles. It is full of brilliant ideas, all represented by the dynamism of the lights scattered around the environments that hide turrets, sentries, thermal cameras and a series of heavily armed robots that, if they spot us, will take us out in a flash. Better to move taking advantage of the cones of shadow and avoiding being discovered. Each area ends with a boss, represented by a particularly annoying sentry, and then there is a whole superstructure made of unlockable elements, extra characters with special powers that allow you to tackle the stages in different ways and online rankings updated in real time.
