Default New Adventure called "Stolen"? Anybody heard anything about this?

I just came across this on gamespot and noticed it was classified as an "Adventure". Looks like a mixture of action/adventure to me, but it doesn't look too bad.

Has anyone heard anything about this and/or seen it yet? If not, it looks like it may be worth checking out.

Here's the link: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/adventure....html?q=stolen

It's a stealth-based action game in which you aren't allowed to kill anyone. From the reviews I've read, it's also a deeply flawed, buggy, inconsistent game, and not worth playing.

I hope that helps .

And the developers of that game have already seized to exist.
At least that's what I read from Gamespot or somewhere else.

Actually the game falls under the 'tactical action/adventure' category so I'll move it over to Generel Gaming.

It looks like a hybrid of Thief and Splinter Cell.

And it's not very good, from what I've heard.

Yep, the developer went out of business just as they were finishing up the game. The publisher likely just slapped it in a box and put it on store shelves for damage control. Patches won't be coming to fix the glitches and bugs... I hear it's more of a forced stealth game, as you can't really attack the guards very much.

Probably not worth checking out unless you find it cheap.

Aw man, that sucks huge time. Conceptually the game had so much potential.
