Wow!!

This is a stealth game!! 😁

You must step on every node to change its color from blue to white while avoiding the radars and patrol guards.

Simple, right?

This futuristic looking game offers 6 levels of fun and adventure.

You’ll pick up items such as the Disrupter, the Camo Hologram, the Q-Transport, the Access and the Grappling Hook.

You’ll need to find security cards of various colors to open those colored doors.

Then there is this mysterious card called: "Withheld or not yet censured" (it’s a hard drive). Hopefully, you’ll understand when you find it.

You’ll need to find Data Fragments and piece together the documents to reveal the story.

Some areas are blocked off by guards and obstacles, making the pathway impossible to navigate.

It appears that you need to earn 3 stars per level and the most I can possibly earn is 99% no matter how many times I replay with no mistakes! 👋😬

The biggest mystery is how to earn 100% on each level when many areas are blocked by patrol guards and stationary radar scanners.❓

After several weeks of playing, I have realized that this is possibly an unfinished game or something went wrong in the programming.

1 ⭐️ REMOVED:
It is impossible to earn 100%. Many nodes are completely blocked.

1 ⭐️ REMOVED:
Another star deducted for the few game ending glitches that require a restart to the previously completed level due to the camera being out of bounds (separated from the game character "Alice"). The game must be completely shut down (closing the app).

1 ⭐️ REMOVED:
Another glitch (that happens OFTEN) makes the control panel (the upper-left corner of the screen) for activating critical items disappears, making the game completely unplayable.

1 ⭐️ REMOVED:
Finally, the most annoying part of this game are the voiceovers that don’t speak English. I had to adjust the volume to ZERO.

TOTAL = 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ REMOVED:
Fix the glitches, the programming issues and add English voiceovers for a 5 star rating.

RESULT = 1 ⭐️ App.
Sadly I had to deduct 4 stars, making this otherwise fun game a 1 star app.

Otherwise an interesting game with potential.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to recommend a game with this many problems.

Despite all of the flaws, this game is very enjoyable and I continue playing after all these years.

In fact, this is the BEST QUALITY stealth game in the App Store and my favorite game of all time.

While I cannot recommend a 1 star game, I absolutely enjoy playing it.

Recommended: No 🥺
Entertainment Value: Good 👍🏼

AWESOME!!!🤩

This game has great story, mechanics, and gameplay. The main things I wish you found do were take out enemies. Apart from that I would love to see a sequel
