Easily one of the best stealth games in recent memory, as are pretty much all of the devs other games. Tragic that they went out of business shortly after release.

Anyone here played Shadow Gambit The Cursed Crew?
It looks lively, but I’m not quite sure how the game plays, specifically on a gamepad. The tags say it’s real time strategy, but doesn’t look like any real time strategy I’ve played.
I’d be interested regardless, but if it’s not a great on a gamepad I’ll wait until I have some time to game on my desktop.

Played a bit of it. It works quite well on a gamepad. You control the characters (initially just one, but pretty sure you’ll get a crew later) directly with the analog stick. It’s nothing like a traditional RTS, more of a strategic stealth game.

And if I remerber correctly: The quicksave function is diegetic, i.e.: explained in the lore of the game (since savescumming is pretty mandatory in these kind, of games).

Ah, gotcha. That sounds like it might work!

It’s more like the Commando or Shadow Tactics series, if you’ve heard of those. Not like Age of Empires or Warcraft.

Like Commando series you say? Sold

Commandos, I should have said.

I haven’t played any of those, but it does look like it might be doable then.
