I feel a little bad giving this game a "bad" score, but I legit felt fairly miserable playing it. That satisfying Hitman gameplay loop of killing your targets in creative ways is kind of here - one of the earlier levels, I blew up the target's car with a bomb planted underneath it, in the sewers, which was incredible.

But none of it matters when the game is so damn brutal. Disguises are simply not that good in this game: if enemies look for too long at you, they see through your disguise, somehow. But even worse, if you dare to sprint, they will almost immediately trigger an alarm - no no, you're supposed to walk everywhere, and Agent 47 has possibly the slowest walking speed of any video game character I've ever seen. It all severely discourages experimenting and exploring the levels, which is the whole point of this series.

If you have far more patience than I do, I suppose you could get some enjoyment out of it. It is a highly regarded game, somehow. To me, it just feels like a prototype.
