Summary:
Essentially your task in this game is to escape from a German WW2 prison camp. It's a stealth game, with poor graphics and even worse gameplay. The problem is, it's extremely boring with fed-ex style missions and time limits to complet them. I loved Splinter Cell. Hitman2 is turning out to be pretty good. But this game is far from those. It's far too basic, and the time limits aren't to my liking. I believe the challenge should come from the game itself, and not from time constraints.

This isn't even worth a rental.
