(I got this game when it was available for free. It's worth the full price.)
This is a really solid indie title. It's punishing, but rewarding of both good planning and tight improvisation.

Pros:
- Satisfying, lethal combat. You're realistically mortal and even armour will only save you (or your enemies) from a couple of rounds. Enemies use cover and won't mindlessly run into a trap.
- Immersive stealth. You can change your stance smoothly for a balance of speed and quiet, your noise level is affected by your equipment, you can use ambient noise to your advantage. Misdirection is a powerful tool and it's just plain fun to sneak around shooting out lights.
- Lots of equipment options. You have a modest selection of primary and secondary weapons to pick from, and more are hidden throughout the game to be unlocked if you exfiltrate with them. There are a number of stealth gadgets to play around with, and they open up new playstyles. (For example, a recharging EMP. Or a grenade!)

Cons:
- The controls are usually tight, but they're just a little lacking in precision around doors and interactable items.

Also, I don't think it'd be fair to list this as a con, but the story is fairly light. It's not bad, but it's on par with your average action blockbuster and mostly serves to set the scene for the levels.

All in all, this game isn't something everyone would enjoy, but if it looks like your type of thing then you'll probably like it!

Balance: No weapon is objectively better than its alternatives - although some are situationally stronger. 7/10.
Gameplay: BLU team attacks the objective, RED defends. Quality FPS gameplay. 9/10.
Customisation: Hundreds of Hats, Taunts, and Weapons. Most are c***, but I won't deny that there's plenty of room to personalise your mercs. 10/10.

Overall: 9/10
