Great strategy game by the also great former studio Mimimi. Follows the same formula (actually this one came first) and delivers a touching and interesting story, yet another setting. Can be a lot of work if you decide to persue all badges - specially time related ones.

Good game tactics wise. The first half of the game is great. The last third is a bit of a slog, however the last mission, despite its difficulty is worth it to demonstrate what you have learnt thus far. The story is low key and characters pretty ordinary, however the gameplay is the game's strength. If you like tactics, defs worth your time

good but idk why i let this in my library for at least a year to finish it, for anyone that already had the game but not play it yet, give it a try, it is dificult and frustating at some point, but just load the game and try different aproach. for anyone that want to buy it but want it, full price is worth it, but if you wait for sale you can grab it like in 90%? i dont remember but i belive i got this game for really cheap price. again, Good game recomended

Good old Commandos has been reborn in Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. Different times, but the tasks are still the same. We destroy undesirable personalities and their henchmen for the new Season. In every way we can! We have at our disposal a squad of five fighters, skilled warriors. Each of them has their own approach to solving problems. The player will have to look for a solution to a particular task himself, both as a squad and as individual fighters. At high levels of difficulty it is really difficult, you need to think everything through and choose your strategy. It may seem that the game is short (only 13 missions), but in these missions the storyline of the game is fully revealed. The game never got bored, it was interesting to replay. I recommend the game, especially for fans of the genre! ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░▄▄░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░██░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░█████▄▄▄░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░▄███▀████░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░▄██▀░█▄░█░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░▄▀░█░░░░█░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░█▄▄█▄▄░█░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░█▀▀▀████░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░█░░░░░░░░▀▀▀▄▄░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░█░░░░░░░░░░░░▀▀▄▄░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░█░░░░▄░░░░░░░█░░▄█▀▄▄░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░█░░░░▀▄░░░░░░█░░█▄████▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░░░░░░░░░▀▀▀█████▄░░░░▀░░███▄████████ ░░░░░░░░░░░░█▄█████▄░█░░▄█████▀▀▀░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░▄███▀▀▀██▀▀██▄░█░▀▀▀▀░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░▄▄██▀█░░░░▀█░░█░░▀▀░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░▄███▀░░█░░░█░█░░▀▄░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░▄███▀░░░█░░░░█▄░░░░█░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ▄███▀░░░░▄▀░░░▄▀█░░░░█░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░

Commandos: Feudal Japan. A steal at the current 90% discount. The potential difficulty stems from finnicky mechanics (mostly based on exact timing/execution). The playable characters in the game correspond with the Sniper, Thief, Spy, Green Beret and Diver.
