The verdict
A deep, tense 1v1 spy-vs-sniper deduction game that's great with a friend, but pricey, with a tiny player base and little development. Skip it if you have no friend to buy it too.
Great for
Pairs of friends who want a tense, mind-game-heavy 1v1 and will both pay for it
Main risk
Paying $25 (twice, with a friend) for a small, barely updated early access game with a dead lobby
What players love
Deep mind games and high skill ceiling
Mentioned in ~1 in 6 positive reviews
“it is surprisingly deep with enough potential options to keep a potential sniper second guessing themselves at the sheer guile the spies can offer.”
