Styx: Shards of Darkness Review

7.6 Total Score
Very Good

Shards of Darkness is an amazing stealth game, thanks to a witty and cynical main character, wonderful level design and a myriad of skills and perks. Embark upon a stealthy adventure with new enemies, new environments, and a plethora of new mechanics refining the abilities of Styx. Sneak past or assassinate new enemies and bosses, explore and master huge open environments, and experiment with the new array of lethal abilities and weapons in our goblin assassin's arsenal. The game mechanics are on par with some of the better known stealth titles out there, and taking place in a massive and beautiful fantasy world only enhances the experience. Styx: Shards of Darkness offers fun, unique gameplay. It might be filled with mixed messages, but there's still a number of hours' worth of sneaky, stabbing action.
