Subsonic

You all know that I love me a good stealth game.  When I started this blog, I was midway through a playthrough of Deus Ex: Human Revolution.  I actually just started playing that game again with the intention of this time going for a louder, less stealthy approach, but I just couldn't do it.  To me, there's no more fun to be had than sneaking around guards and navigating around enemies' cones of vision.

Subsonic takes those gameplay elements and puts them in a top-down minimalistic perspective, kind of like that flash game The Classroom. In Subsonic, you're given three different types of sound guns.  One distracts guards, one breaks glass, and one lets you move silently, as explained in the relatively hilarious tutorial screens.

The most identifiable feature about the game is that it's haaarrrrdddddd.   Seriously, this game takes no prisoners, but in a good way.  The levels are short, so starting from the beginning isn't too much of a pain.  It frustrates you just enough to make beating the level immensely rewarding.

and...yeah.  That's all I can really say about this one.  It's a good game that's worth your time.  That's all I got for now.  Until next time, stay quiet
