Shadow Tactics’ impressive missions, laden toy box and likeable cast make it one of the greatest stealth games of the last decade.

4/5 stars
While Shadow Tactics offers a decent gameplay length, the lack of replayability makes the pricing a little questionable, but over all, if you're a fan of the genre, you will find it to be a worthwhile investment.

32bit only

You won't even be able to run it on any current/modern Mac - it's 32bit only with no intent to bring it back to life. And GOG never tells you whether a game is Intel/M1/32bit/64bit compatible - probably because most of their games aren't properly updated, even if they are on other platforms.
