Is Hidden & Dangerous: Action Pack worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Players who want to command a small military squad instead of controlling one lone character
- World War II fans who prefer covert operations over fantasy or science-fiction settings
- Strategy players who enjoy selecting personnel and equipment before directing missions
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a character-driven campaign with extensive individual progression may find the squad-command structure limiting
- Players who prefer constant direct combat may find the planning, equipment choices, and coordinated maneuvers slow the pace
- Players looking for a modern-day setting rather than World War II operations
Our take on Hidden & Dangerous: Action Pack
Commanding a squad adds tactical control but reduces the immediacy of a single-character action game. Attention is divided among personnel, equipment, and coordinated movements, making mission planning part of the experience rather than a brief preparation step.
What is Hidden & Dangerous: Action Pack?
This action-strategy pack includes Hidden & Dangerous and Fight for Freedom.
In 1941, lead a four-person squad of covert paratroopers through enemy territory and toward the border. Choose from 40 international commandos, equip them with guns, explosives, and surveillance gear, and direct operations across forests, tunnels, and city streets. Missions include tactical choices such as destroying a bridge. An overhead map supports coordinated maneuvers, while World War II vehicles can be used during operations. Fight for Freedom adds missions and campaigns centered on the British Special Air Service.
