The Lord of the Rings is a highly prolific series that puts the spotlight on Gollum, one of the most antagonistic characters in The Lord of the Rings. In this original story, you play as Smeagol, a transformed hobbit who lives and survives as creatures known as Gollum.
For One Ring and self-preservation, Gollum must sneak through various notable locations in Middle-earth. This presents a definite challenge as Gollum has no reliable means of defense and must rely on stealth. However, this is definitely not just him, there are other games that rely on shadows to succeed.
8 Styx series
Gollum may be known as a small, brutal creeper, but he’s not the only character to bear that title. There are several fantasy games of his, centered around his character Styx, a goblin who lived a very long life. He used this time to master the use of his body and shadow to his advantage in order to become a skilled assassin.
Since he’s a goblin, you’ll need to use whatever means possible to sneak up and defeat the large, armored humanoid. Stealth and stealth are his basics, but he also has tools and magic that give him even more options.
7 Spider-Man: Miles Morales
Spider-Man games always perform well, and for good reason. While fledgling heroes Miles Morales and his protégé Peter Parker have improved in speed and strength, their core abilities manifested a little differently. Spider-Man is by no means the most picky when it comes to ranking heroes, so he relies heavily on stealth, and Miles’ powers make up for it nicely.
His poison attacks can stun enemies from a distance, and he has the power to literally disappear. Miles is tough, but he’s still a kid, so he’ll need to use his mobility and power to stealth and pick off as many enemies as possible.
6 story ghost
Ghost Of A Tale is an indie title that gets little attention, but it doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. Set in a dark fantasy world, you play as a rat trapped in an isolated prison guarded by rats. Your goal is to escape prison and find out where your missing wife is by exploring the prison and surrounding areas.
Naturally, you’ll have to use your rat-like physique and agility to avoid detection, defeating rats only as a last resort. This is a situation where you rarely feel safe and you never want a rat to attack you.
Five inside
With Limbo’s success, the Playdead developers realized there was one thing they were really good at. It’s a stealth mechanic, and we’ve brought it to Inside. Once again, you play as a young child in a stark dystopian world. Little is revealed at first other than simply the need to escape and survive.
There’s a fair amount of platforming, physics, and puzzle-solving, but there’s also a solid stealth element. There are multiple hostile entities looking only for you, so move quickly, hide, and always have an escape route.
Four Ninja mark
Ninjas have been distorted in almost every way by the media, so the authentic portrayal of ninjas feels kind of novel. Mark Of The Ninja takes some liberties, but strives to be accurate in many ways. The game depicts an unnamed ninja from an ancient clan who receives a tattoo said to grant enhanced strength and mystical powers.
After this, his clan is attacked by a technologically enhanced PMC force. Equipped with a blade and some tools, he has a strong build, but his defenseless ninja body doesn’t do much against bullets. He will be challenged to move sharply, hide quickly, or leave no trace of his presence.
3 plague story series
Nothing heightens the survival instinct like being forced to flee or having someone to protect. Both Plague Tale games feature a character named Amicia. The daughter of a knight, her home is invaded and destroyed by fanatical forces dedicated to kidnapping and studying her brother Hugo.
On the run, Amicia must rely on her resourcefulness, stealth and sling skills to guide herself and Hugo to safety. Ultimately, she gains access to an arsenal of exceptional weapons and abilities, but they’re no substitute for the old-fashioned act of hiding in the bushes and making distracting noises.
2 Invisible Inc.
After trying out Ninja, the Mark Of The Ninja folks are back to try out Spy. These are not just spies, they are corporate spies working for Invisible, Inc. As the leader of your own spy business, your job involves infiltrating other companies, stealing their secrets and performing secure extractions.
It’s interesting to combine stealth gameplay with turn-based strategy, as well as having access to a full team of characters with greater diversity. Some people are good at hacking, others are good at dealing with security. Also, some people are great at hiding. Everyone gathers together for a fun game of sneak and spy.
1 shadow of series
Gollum is all about stealth and keeping a low profile, but he’s not the first LOTR character to rely on that. Many years ago, Shadow of Mordor introduced us to Talion, a Ranger who was killed while guarding Mordor’s borders. He is soon revived by the ring’s creator, the wraith-like elf Celebrimbol. Together, the two form a powerful duo in and out of combat.
It’s perfectly fine to jump into the middle of an orc banquet and start a duel with everyone there, but stealth is far more satisfying. You can crouch, climb, dive, sneak, detonate explosives, poison consumables, use arrows, shoot various wildlife, or simply sneak up and stealth kill. increase. Gollum is a professional mean man, but our Talion-Celebrimbor Ranger has a much wider range.
