Our take on UnMetal

The focus on escaping a single military base gives the story a clear setting, but limits the scope to one central objective rather than a broader journey across multiple locations.

What is UnMetal?

Play as Jesse Fox, imprisoned in a covert military base for a crime he says he did not commit.

Escape by using stealth, combat, improvised skills, explosives, and gadgets, with fists as a fallback. Taking down enemies through stealth earns experience and skills. Along the way, adapt to situations with deception, including impersonating a cat, and uncover a clandestine plot. The game also frames the escape through interrogations: Jesse recounts events to a lieutenant scrutinizing his account. Its 2D stealth action-adventure structure draws on classic games and adds satire and references to culture, games, and movies.
