10 Secret Video Game Shortcuts You DEFINITELY Missed
5. Serious Sam 3 - Sneak Through A Whole Level
Serious Sam 3 is not a game that the word "sneak" is normally used to describe. Developed by CroTeam and published by Devolver Digital, this revival of the hyperviolent, characteristically unserious shooter series is certainly not focussed on stealth.
Your normal approach in this game would involve copious amounts of gunfire-induced chaos and large explosions. There is one level that lets you subvert this design philosophy, though.
The Silent Riddler is a level set among a vast desert plain, having you hop through the ruins of an archaeological dig site after fighting your way through an aggressive settlement. Or, if you are not interested in fighting the incoming assailants, you can quietly move around the outskirts of the town.
Then, you are able to clip into the geometry of the archaeological ruins' outer walls. This allows for Sam to perform some bizarre, half-submerged walltop run across the rest of the level, meaning you do not need to fire a single shot.
Serious business.
