Saboteur 2
As the name implies, stealth is key to success in most missions. This means you won't be facing an onslaught of enemies in this game, but the ones you do face are quite difficult to beat. Enemy ninjas always show up to ruin your day, and trained animals like tigers can make your job much more difficult. There's a wide range of weapons you can find and use in the game (why Ninjas in these games have to _find_ weapons as opposed to come prepared always puzzles me - oh well, best not to ruin any suspension of disbelief ;)) The controls are not very intuitive and the animations not as fluid as Jordan Mechner's early classic Karateka, but they are adequate by 1987 standards. If you like beat 'em ups, Saboteur 2 will surprise you with its wonderful range of missions and innovative focus on stealth. Thumbs up!

Technical Notes: | Your anti-virus program may tell you this game has a Trojan virus called "Trojan.Durell." That's a false alarm: as part of the game's anti piracy protection, it includes codes that would format the disk upon detection of a pirated copy. This misleads mode |
