Stealth games!

[Turbo Kid]

I didn't see a thread for this so here we go! Talk about any stealth games here. Here's some that I think are great

I like the Thief series, whose first entry I actually won as a prize (along with Anachronox) on the original Pixel Trivia! years back.

I can share these titles and the console I've played them on:

Volume (PSVita) - loved every bit of it, one of the two game I've been able to stealth through
Aragami (Switch) - nice shadow mechanic but I'm not so good in 3d
Shinobido 2 (PSVita) - same as above (about me being not good), same cool ninja setting
Assassin's Creed Chronicles (PSVita) - three games in one, China, India, Russia, 2d with depths and gorgeous artstyle, loved them all (more than the other classic Assassin's Creed title I've also played) and got the trophies for a stealthy/no kills playthrough
Sniper Elite 4 (Switch) - same as the others in which I haven't gone stealth because I'm clumpsy, but still going stealth would be the wisest and best way to clear the wide levels, these levels are setting in Italy and are simply awesome, they look like little open worlds on their own

I played a lot of Tenchu: Shadow Assassins on PSP emulator a year or two ago

I also played a lot of Tenchu Z on 360 back in the day. Wish it was backwards compatible on modern Xbox consoles!

I have always found stealth games difficult, because in essence they're about timing and patience, and i often lack the latter.

For me - i still think the Thief series, and MGS is the high watermark. They make stealth the core mechanic that you really can't deviate from. There was a slew of games in the 90s and early 00s that sort of bolted on stealth badly as an option, when you ended up just shooting everyone in the face anyway.

Noble mention though to the Splinter Cell series. Also Commandos.

The camera in this series hates you more than the Tenchu series does!

I would also add Syphon Filter (PSP, both titles) - enjoyed them a lot.

I have not mentioned Metal Gear because it's the most famous and obvious choice: I've played the two titles on Vita and the PSP ones but with a guide, left alone I would still be lost especially in the two on Vita.
