Stealth

About

Stealth puts you in command of six U.S. soldiers navigating Vietnam's jungles. Turn-based gameplay forces careful planning, move, attack, or hold position while the enemy strikes from foliage during their turn. Missions focus on advancing to destroy missile sites, dodging Viet Cong ambushes and managing limited weapon ranges. Simple 8-bit graphics and tactical depth capture the tense, methodical pacing of 80s war arcade games. The game's historical attention to detail earns praise, Viet Cong uniforms mirror real-life camouflage, blending with villagers to reflect wartime realities. Weapon mechanics factor in ammo reach and weight, requiring smart loadout choices. While basic by modern standards, it remains a respected early example of squad-based tactics. Community playthroughs note its addictive difficulty curve, balancing luck and strategy in a way that still holds up.
