Shadow Watch is a turn-based, isometric game of stealth, intrigue and combat. You have been given command of a team of six highly trained operatives with orders to find out who is behind the attacks against those working on the ISS.

The game consists of a campaign as well as customizable individual missions. The campaign can be played over and over again without it ever being the same.

Shadow Watch takes place in three different settings: Baikonur, Rio de Janeiro and Hong Kong. At each locale, you must talk to various contacts to determine what is going on and then solve the problem through a series of missions. These missions can have a variety of objectives including planting surveillance devices at a location, rescuing a hostage, defending a building, demolishing a building and much more.

As each mission is completed, the characters in your team gain experience. This allows them to learn new skills, which can make them more effective during future missions. Once the problem at one of the settings is solved, you continue on to the next two before undertaking a final mission to complete the campaign. Shadow Watch is a quick, but engrossing game, which is easy to learn and can be replayed time and time again.
  • Investigation: Reconnaissance into the most isolated corners of the globe.
  • Training: Learn skills before you launch each deadly mission.
  • Conversation: Interrogate shady locals and underworld contacts.
  • Combat: Match your team against international adversaries in straight-on combat.

Great turn based fun

I had never heard of this little gem before, don't know how I missed it first time around. Excellent turn based stealth action or guns blazing strategy with a few RPG elements. Quite a bit of random in the campaign which makes it quite replayable. All in all a good package.

An Okay Squad Based Tactical Game

This game is generally okay. The interface is a little clunky and the graphics make an attempt at an interesting aesthetic but end up being kind of simplistic and hard to see. If you're really into tactical squad turn-based games (like I am) this isn't a bad purchase. However, there are much better games out there in this genre.

Great memories and still a great game

I bought this one on a vacation in Australia and could hardly wait to get back to Germany to play it. It is a really well designed tactics game with a nice atmosphere and comic-style look. The LOS-system takes some getting used to, but it is quite realistic and it makes sense once you figure it out (at least most of the time :-) ) Good voice acting and sound effects together with some skill-tree tree character developement make for a well rounded experience I had missed for a long time. Thanks to GOG for making it available.

Way too slow & boring

Pros: Good looking comic book style artwork. The conversations leading up to campaign missions are detailed and decently written. Voice acting is alright, nothing special. Cons: The game pace is really slow and gets boring quickly, when combined with a 30 second loop of music it is torture. When I went looking for mission objectives in Raid and Theft missions I couldn't find them after exploring the entire map, there was nothing highlighted anywhere. I kicked open a door in frustration and instantly lost the mission, even though everyone was KO'd I guess it set off a security alarm somewhere. Line of sight is buggy in some areas, an enemy soldier saw a character through a wall (no windows, only 1 door open) and shot a character to death. I was actively scanning to figure out where this guy was with Gennedy but could not find him anywhere beyond the door. Although there is good artistic style in this game, the game-play falls flat on its face, I do not recommend buying this game.
