- The Bottom Line:
- "Disappointing"
Looking at screenshots and graphics, one would think this game would be good. But no, its bad. Graphics are OK but gameplay? really that bad.
- The game is linear. Infact its so much linear that there is always only one path to your goal. only one door. only one crawl space. there is no other way to reach your objective. You can not wander around.
- Whats even worse is that you have no control over killing enemies. You have a knife which you can use to kill enemies from behind with exactly one left click (whats fun in that). and if enemy happens to be facing you, you can not use the knife to kill him. You will be shot to death by enemies but you can not take out your knife and stab any if you are not hidden.
- Predictable dialog.
- Overall, you have no freedom in game. You will be forced to go along a linear path. And you will only be able to progress through game by doing things in a specific pre-defined way (the way developers wanted).

Great potential for good stealth game but final product lack in too many areas.

Velvet Assassin has a lot of potential, but has broken stealth mechanics and a paper-thin story.

Prepare your knife for some stealth kills.

Worth making and worth playing, with issues but more importantly, with real gameplay and involvement.
