I don't know why there are so many negative reviews, I really love this game! I love games from the Cold War & Vietnam War era. I feel like there are not enough games out there that realistically portray those times, this game is fun but challenging

User reviews
It's supposed to be a stealth game, but you can just run up to an enemy facing you and tap the attack button, and it counts as a stealth kill. I got bored and stopped playing once I figured this out, an got to the point where I was just getting close enough that I could sprint up to them and kill them with nearly every enemy
The third and final installment of the spy game, rendered in a new style with new, modern mechanics, touching not only on World War II, but also on the global nuclear crisis, tensions in the Caribbean, biker gangs, Asian culture, and confrontation with the Soviet Union. The game is very intense and challenging, and I really enjoyed it. I recommend it.
