Our take on Cloak & Dagger: Shadow Operations
The campaign is built around a one-sitting format: five linear missions combine light control with sound-conscious movement through enemy spaces.
What is Cloak & Dagger: Shadow Operations?
In 1993, a covert task force examines influential organizations and uncovers their motives in this linear, third-person stealth game.
The five-mission campaign is built for completion during one session. Darkness supports infiltration: players can destroy lamps, shut down power sources, incapacitate enemies, and use flashbangs to hinder those giving chase. Footsteps vary by terrain, with snow and grass creating less noise than shattered glass or metal grating. Environmental sounds can cover movement. The narrative follows the Soviet Union’s breakup and explores overseas interference, military contractors, and armed factions supported by governments.
