“A masterpiece in transparency. Exposing the details of a stealth game (as well as limiting it to 2D) creates amazing intentional play.”

Reviews

"Let it stand as the benchmark by which all stealth games are now measured."
10/10 -
Destructoid

"Mark of the Ninja executes its formula to such a high degree of near-perfection that I could hardly think of a way it could be meaningfully improved the whole way through it."
5/5 - Giant Bomb

"Tense, strategic, and hard to put down, Mark of the Ninja is one of the welcome surprises of the year."
9/10 - GameInformer

"Fast yet measured, breezy yet deep, and above all highly replayable, it's a game that stands as a refreshing example of stealth action done right."
4.5/5 - GamesRadar

"An expertly-crafted love letter to stealth gaming, and so far one of the year's best titles."
10/10 - Hyper Magazine
