12 Most Underrated Stealth Video Games Of All Time

7. Invisible Inc.

From incredible indie devs, Klei Entertainment - those of Mark of the Ninja and Don't Starve fame - they set out to reinvent the stealth wheel all over again in 2015, applying an XCOM-style isometric strategy formula to a genre that's formerly resigned to controlling characters directly. In doing so - like Metal Gear Acid to some degree - it forces you to plan every move accordingly. Planting agents on doorways as you try to predict enemy movements, hacking into security systems to free up other pathways and methods of insertion, deploying special abilities and hiding bodies - everything unfolds piece by piece, and it's all backed up by the studio's exemplary, forever gorgeous animation. Playing Invisible Inc. is like nothing else, and if you enjoy pre-empting which enemies you're going to take out, how and when every step of the way in other stealth titles, it's definitely for you.
