A modern version of The Sting! (Der Clou 2!) from 2001, where you perform different Heists and preparation missions in a variety of locations (Museum in Venice, several Banks, the Harbor, Police Headquarters, etc.) with 3 out of 6 different characters, all sporting unique skills.

The gameplay is an isometric real time stealth game, much like the Commandos series from 1998 - 2003, but here you can create a complete path for every character in pause mode and pause/play through the whole process. There are guards on patrol, cameras to disable and items can be picked up and used, which are basically 1 time uses of the different sills from the characters.

You gradually unlock characters, one of their 4 skills, tools and items in the story missions and there is a challenge mode for people that need more.

The story is about a Heist gang in the '60 being betrayed by one of their own and taking revenge a few years later. The characters are cliches, but all fits together to give you the " Ocean's 11 in the '60" feeling.

Early Access Review
This game, even though it is "just" early access for now, is a perfect modern version of the old settlers games (3&4 in particular)! The theme of vikings is great and there's finally multi player added. Over the last few months the game changed a lot, which shows the developers are active and listening to the fans.

There is no campaign yet (june 2017), but since EVERY map u play is randomly generated the replay value is big.

This is what Resident Evil 6 should've been! Throw in some velociraptors and its a great hommage to the trinity of '90 survival horror games (please don't!). If you did not yet, i advice to play the demo first, as that makes the beginnig even more frightening. Send everybody home, shut off all lights and turn up your speakers (warn your neighbours beforehands, if you have some)!

Hopefully 2 extra pair of pants are enough to finish this game o.0

I am really disappointed by this release! NOTHING feels "slightly updated to keep the original feeling" which was only an excuse, to not do anything, except making it run on windows 10.
I am sure it wasn't even playtested, since the sound when you push/pull an 0bject gets played every little nudje. Now imagine pulling something for a few steps...

Wait for a steam sale!

EDIT: By now most bugs are solved and all DLC is available in the base game. The game is as fun to play throug, as it was in 2006. But for this price, I'd still advice to wait for a steam sale!

Wow, this game is great, especially when playing with controller (i use a wired 360 controller). You NEED to watch the youtube videos from the developers, linked in the tutorials, but once you get used to the controls its feels great to have dog fights in space.

If you like any of the X games, but want an online game that supports controllers (while also SHOWING the pad buttons in the onscreen tips and hints!), this game is for you!!!
