Other mechanics further complicate your economic considerations needless to say, credits are highly valuable, and while you could engage in a straightforward infiltration, safes and terminals lure you from one room to the next. Ranged weapons don’t come with unlimited ammo-they must be recharged with a one-use charger when they go empty-and agents you rescue don’t have weaponry on them. There is the draw of credits, for one, which you spend on leveling up your agents’ skills as well as on gadgets like weapons (both ranged and melee), augments (implants that offer passive bonuses), and other useful objects. Who needs trophies, when stealthy success serves as its own reward? Ultimately, you take up to four agents on missions, which typically involve obtaining sensitive data from a terminal, grabbing ill-gotten credits, and hightailing it out of there. You begin with a duo but steadily add imprisoned agents to your roster as you spring them from holding cells.

The titular spy agency is violently infiltrated, initiating a time-sensitive series of global heists and sneakabouts, each of which you control from an isometric perspective in the style of strategy games like XCOM. It introduces new concepts in a slow drip, giving you plenty of time to work out the details. is also simple, elegant, and always logical. It’s tense and challenging, yes, but Invisible Inc. That meter tells you when security will be heightened during your heist, and it’s a vital part of what makes this stealth game worth the gray hairs it causes. In invisible, Inc., I have as much time as I need to position my agents just so, but I’m always paying attention to the security level at the top right of my screen. That never happened though, so I can’t really complain.How amazing that a turn-based game can feel so urgent. Things sometimes hitch up just before AI turns, occasionally to the level that I anticipated a hard crash of the game. There are also some performance problems, though they are far from crippling.

The UI elements and text are way too small for the living room, and selecting commands is difficult without a mouse cursor – they could be highlighted more prominently.

Unfortunately, some of things that worked great on the PC haven’t transitioned well. The film noire style characters gel perfectly with the cyber-aesthetic of the environments and UI bits, and it’s a real treat to stare at. Klei has always been known for stellar art design, but they’ve outdone themselves here. Invisible Inc provides substantial challenge even on Beginner, but escalates rapidly into ‘brutally difficult’ on higher levels. It’s stimulating, gratifying, and addictive. An agent has been spotted, another is unconscious, a robot guard that sees through cover is in the next room, and 3 new security cameras are online – can you guide the whole team to the exit? The game challenges the player to make life and death choices based on imperfect data, and react accordingly when things go wrong.

The most fun and tense moments in Invisible Inc PS4 happen when everything goes sideways. This overarching flow of the game is omnipresent while playing it’s the little voice in your head asking if you should really spend those credits or apply that augment. Do you focus on recruiting additional agents to the cause? Or focus on kitting out fewer agents with awesome gear? Invisible Inc does a fantastic job of making a broad variety of strategies viable, so long as you plan ahead a bit.

This means there’s a huge amount of flexibility in how you approach the task at hand.

Each mission ‘costs’ a certain number of hours to complete, and may involve rescuing captured agents, stealing corporate cash for upgrades, or stealing upgrade technology for your agents to use.

At the beginning of the game, you’re given 72 hours before the final mission begins. Like you’ll find in other strategy games, Invisible Inc PS4 demands you be, well, strategic. “This is a tense, engaging, and cerebral strategy experience that sets a new bar for the genre.” Invisible Inc is brilliantly designed a layered experience that challenges the player with both minutiae and meta elements. This is a tense, engaging, and cerebral strategy experience that sets a new bar for the genre. That’s not to say Invisible Inc PS4 is bad – no no no. There wasn’t enough story development along the way for me to care about the characters, and the ham-fisted cliff hanger ending left a bit of a sour taste. Though the game takes a stab at larger and more disturbing themes at its conclusion, but these efforts missed the mark for me.
