A tense and atmospheric co-op stealth game where you and a partner creep through a sinister compound, solving puzzles while evading enemies with the constant sense of being watched.

What players say
Players strongly disagree on this one. Some find it a waste of time with unfair enemy detection and random patrol routes that make levels feel luck-based, while others recommend it for those who enjoy punishing trial and error.
