Despite the reinvented edition having seeminly been canned, the original game Sir you are being hunted is still a really fun & quaint little indie game. While it can be beaten relatively fast and is thus a tad expensive for what it is, especially with the rough visuals, i'd say gameplay more than makes up for that. Replayability aside the game is a blast to play because of a great core gameplay loop. You run around a very nicely procedurally generated English countryside looking for a handfull of mcguffins to escape an experiment gone awry. While doing so you have to avoid getting shot by the cast of dastardly robots with guns. You can do this by fighting them or preferably sneaking past them. Sneaking in this game works very well in my opinion, with foliage giving a realistic stealth bonus based on the density and height of whatever shrubbery you are sneaking in. Using distractions is highly effective and the AI is pretty well made for its time. Should you choose for violence though you'll be met with some solid gunplay but beware, ammo is scarce. Thus you'll have to loot for both bullets and means to stay alive in the form of food, as well as a large array of distractables & tools. The core gameplay of looting, sneaking & shooting is really fun like i said and the eerie visuals paired with good sound design make this a suprisingly immersive experience. Even one playthrough is worth it in my opinion but especially replay can prove fun, especially if you play with all the modifiers.

It feels as if this game was never truly finished. Regardless, I enjoyed it thoroughly. It's terrifying and gratifying.

A game where the stealth actually works and the stealth route is the one worth taking. There is the usual route but its nice to see the flipside.

This is probably not everyone's cup of tea. In essence it is more stealth than most stealth games, as in: you want to avoid interacting with the enemies. The stealth is less about flashy "sneak behind the guard's cone of vision in a tight window frame" and more "spot your enemies from far away and stay out of sight untill you need to loot a city for food or grab a fragment". I can see how it can be jarring for someone expecting the former. But I entered knowing full well it was about the latter and was not disappointed. Pretty relaxing and fun, for me.

It's been a while since I've played a runthrough but I used to love playing this game non-stop back when I was in school. You play as someone who is stranded on a different world. Your goal is to collect pieces to return back home as on the island your currently on there are tons of manhunting robots. You get to go around by hiding, distracting, trapping, and using other various methods to keep yourself safe from the robots. The different robot styles are very cool, and though it does get repetitive at times to use the same distractions/traps its overall very fun trying to manage your way around the island. It has great scare factor (thought I do scare pretty easy) and It's definitely a favorite of mine, and got me into other stealth type games like it.
