Stealth Bastard vs Volume

Stealth Bastard is a high‑energy indie platformer that blends puzzle solving with frantic stealth action. Set in a sci‑fi world, the game challenges players to move quickly, avoid detection, and use a built‑in level editor to craft custom challenges. The single‑player experience is powered by Curve Studios and published by Curve Digital, offering a unique hide‑and‑seek feel with a generous dose of difficulty. Released on PC in November 2011, it remains a cult favorite for fans of fast stealth gameplay.

In Volume, players step into the shoes of Locksley, a modern Robin Hood who relies on stealth, gadgets, and clever tactics to rob the rich and aid the unheard. Set in a near-future world, the game blends narrative-driven action with challenging puzzle‑like levels that reward careful planning and precise execution. The experience expands with a robust level editor, allowing the community to craft and share their own challenges, ensuring the game evolves long after the initial 100 levels are completed. Play solo across PlayStation 4, PC, Mac, and VR, and watch the legend grow as you master each stealthy heist.
