A well-written, engaging, and possibly even romantic spy story. Highly recommended for a nice relaxed evening.

Also the developers added and continues to add more stories alongside the original adventure. That is a sign for a game made with love.

Nice concept, terrible execution. Tries too hard to be funny, and ruins it completely. Finished it anyway because I was feeling masochistic today. It takes about 2 hours.

This may be one of the best games I've ever played. It's smart, its quick, it's minimal but also deep. Randomness in all of the areas (except combat) creates endless number of situations and challenges, but thanks to the non-random combat, you can predict the results your own decisions.

An example: Assume that you are trying to capture the controls of an enemy ship and direct it to an enemy planet to destroy its defenses. You sneak/fight your way towards the ship controls with smart tactics. Maybe you have been lucky and had a subverter on you, subverted enemy turrets against the crew, used to confusion to sneak past others, teleported a guy outside of the ship, shot one, and while it was cooling down threw your knife at the other guy. Last guy had no chance because you also subverted his shields against him, meaning he shot himself when he was trying to shoot you.

You finally reached the controls, but while you were fighting, the ship was already getting near your target planet, so when you directed it you noticed you only have 6 seconds to escape. You had your one last 'swapper' with you, so swapped your position with an enemy near the windows, broke the glass and threw yourself out to the space. Now you must remote control your pod to come save you before you suffocate. Assume you failed, and died. Back in the planet you liberated earlier, at the bar, a new guy comes in and offer you his services. He is weak so cannot use melee weapons but know how to make the guns silent. He can help your main campaign, but like everyone else, he has his personal mission as well: Save his sister from the Glitchers. The problem is, he is dying and only have 10 minutes to live.

It's Sims all over again.

I was trying to convince my friends to buy this but new prices and this DLC policy ruins it.

Not a Hitman game.

Update: Hitman is my favorite game serie. Sadly, this is not a Hitman game. This is just a cowboy flavored B-movie scenario with sneaking past idiot AI to try to kill a single man yet fail many times because f**k you type of game. Nothing like the international style of other Hitman games.

Also that beginning with Diana and teenage girl is just stupid and forced.

Play the new game instead. Or Blood Money. Or Silent Assassin. They are all classics.

Cry when your sheep is torn apart by a wolf when you were out checking your deathfall traps for an elk.

If you loved SP: The Stick of Truth, you will probably love this, too.

My first negative review.

The game has a lot of potential, I'll give them that.
But that's it. There is nothing in this game except potential.
All islands are same. Make a fire, cook a crab using a broken cooking mechanic, and thats it.

I bought the game when it was first released as Early Acess and its been 6 months now.
Developer released some updates, yes, but these updates contain only minor bugfixes and ui enhancements.

I warn you, do not be fooled by its looks, this game is a scam in this current state. Wait if it gets any real content.

December 2015 Update:
6 months later my original review, a little has changed. They added the ability to make your building from materials other than wood, and you can now use triangular shapes while building them instead of square. YAY! 1 year of no real update, and people still defends this game.

All I am saying is: the game has very very little to offer for now, wait if it gets any real content, but I warn you, it may not. If you don't believe me, check this game's hub in steam and see how users could not share anything worth consideration. Check youtube videos and see if there is more than visiting same islands to build a fire and a shack.
