DISHONORED
This first-person action-adventure game adds stealth elements which prevents an all out mad-dash, thus adding different textures and levels of intensity and suspense.
The city of Dunwall is an industrial landscape stricken with a rat plague. You are Corvo, the Lord Protector of the Empress, who is framed for her murder. You take justice into your own hands to have those responsible pay, and find her kidnapped daughter. With traitors and dubious allies to contend with, your weapons include swords, pistols and explosives (with upgrading, purchasing options). But, you can also access supernatural powers with purchased bone charms (allowing everything like rat possession, teleportation and time bending).
In this steam-punk styled era where old and new collide, scenes play out at a variety of locations like the royal palace, prison, sewers, back streets, a pub (where you get mission objectives) and other textured terrain. Your actions (including the use of force or not), interactions with other characters and choices throughout the game determine the outcome. This may be difficult for some, but the option to complete the game without killing any of the non-player characters make for quite a challenge.
As the world of cinema integrates more with that of the gaming world, here actors supplying voices include Susan Sarandon (Thelma & Louise), Chloë Grace Moretz, Brad Dourif (Chucky), John Slattery, Carrie Fisher (Star Wars) and Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs).
This one carries an 18 age restriction.
