![]() ![]() My favourite skill that I unlocked was Mesmerise. You can even turn a torch into a dark cloud that nobody can see into. You can make a clone of yourself to divert attention, or make noise to attract guards. Depending on your preferences there are more passive skills that make you invisible when against a wall or still for a while, or some seriously powerful active abilities. As you level up for being a good sneaky boy, there’s a huge skill tree full of abilities to unlock. But when things start to ramp up you’ll want to upgrade your arsenal. Your basic abilities are all you’ll need to get through the first few stages. ![]() Whether you use it to teleport across rooftops or behind a man to run him through, it’s such a satisfying skill. Your other starting ability is teleportation, which you can use to move a short distance in front of you or attach to an out of reach ledge. It lets you see enemies and objective through walls, and can be used as much as you need. Although not particularly flashy, Shadow Vision is probably the most helpful. Even your basic magical skills make you a much more effective killing machine. The shadow abilities are what really make you a killing machine though. As long as nobody is too close to you (the bad guys have mercifully poor vision) it’s pretty easy to take down a foe and hide their body so nobody ever finds them. While trying to accomplish your sneaky goals, you can hide in tall grass, hang off ledges, and of course silently murder enemies who cross your path. Your character in Aragami has all the stealth based powers you might imagine. So it’s up to you to protect your people while you can. The curse that brings their powers also slowly corrupts their body and mind. These fearsome assassins have power over the shadows, but this comes with a price. You play as a member of the shadow clan known as the Aragami. For the record, that makes up the first few hours of the game. ![]() I was given access to the first 12 missions of Aragami 2 for this preview. Thankfully, that drought is coming to an end thanks to upcoming sequel Aramagi 2. Since those glory days, there’s been a distinct lack of ninja stealth games. Moving through the shadows and dispatching guards was a delight. For me though, my days of sneaking started with Tenchu. When most people think of stealth games, the first series that comes to mind is probably Metal Gear Solid. ![]()
