Pandora Stealth PC

Pandora Stealth for PC is a multiplayer action game developed by Heartcore Games. The project was inspired by the stealth-action multiplayer mode present in 2004's Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow.

Mechanics

Pandora Stealth does not offer any single-player mode. Two completely different teams of players encounter one another in multiplayer sessions. One team assumes the roles of perfectly trained and acrobatically gifted spies equipped with numerous gadgets, but having little firepower. The other team comprises the mercenaries whose task is to eliminate the spies. Although they do not have special equipment or skills, they make up for it with durable armors and a wide set of powerful weapons at their disposal.

In Pandora Stealth for PC, team selection determines the play-style. The spies focus on remaining unseen and playing as one means observing the action from the third-person view. Assuming the role of a spy, the player needs to hide in the shadows, avoid detection and create diversions in order to achieve certain goals in each of the maps available. As a mercenary on the other hand, the player has to patrol the area, set traps and eliminate the intruders, all of which is done from the first-person view. Both groups have their strong and weak spots, so different tactics have to be applied depending on the team chosen.

Technical aspects

Pandora Stealth for PC utilizes the Unreal Engine 4, thanks to which, the game offers high level of detail applying both to character models and environments. Also, the engine makes it possible to generate large maps. What is the most advantageous aspect of using this technology however, is dynamic lighting. This affects the gameplay to a great degree, for the core mechanic here is based on the spies being able to hide in darkness.
