Feb. 2025
Final game of the stealth strategy trilogy containing Shadow Tactics, Desperado 3 and this one. Desperado 3 is my favorite of the bunch but this game is awesome and packed with content. There always is something fun to do. Only caveat, we go back to the same maps a lot. They are big so that's not really an issue if you concentrate on the active mission. But if, like me, you enjoy cleaning every map you go in, this is kind of a problem. I prefered the maps of Desperado 3 where the mission objectives and the level design were more linked. With that said, I enjoy playing it a lot. 30+ hours and I still haven't got to the end of the story. Good job Mimimi games. It is sad to know that it was your last game.

It's difficult writing about this game after the closure of the studio. I enjoyed their other games, and I enjoyed this one. In some ways, it was the triumph of their production.

A highlight of the stealth strategy genre, it combines stealth tactics, thrilling adventures, and clever humor into an engaging experience. This captivating and addictive game is definitely worth experiencing.

I first played Shadow Tactics enjoyed it very much, then I played Desperado III, which I too enjoyed very much, and now I have played the last and final game the Shadow Gambit, which I also enjoyed very much. Quite sad that this is the last and final game, as I like how they make stealth games. It's quite unique and there aren't many games like it on the market, so very sad to lose such a huge developer for this genre. This game implemented the mechanic of saving and loading into the story, very beautifully, and I have never seen it be done in such a way. The overall story and little character stories, as well as the captain quests, were charming. Nothing really mind breaking, but it was definitely enjoyable. This is also the best game for completionist, as you have the most freedom and quite a lot of badges to collect if you want to. If I had to rank all games it would be Desperado III in last, because I found the characters and story to be the most lackluster, apart from the voodoo woman which I absolutely loved. Second is Shadow Gambit, as it has the most creative abilities and quite charming stories and in first place Shadow tactics, as I really bonded with each character liked the setting the most and had in my opinion the best story.

As a mimimi game lover I engaged with Shadow Gambit but it's quite a side grade from previous titles. Different energy, less serious, less technical, less... rewarding? Still a good game but not up to the previous legendary records.
