Best for players who want cyberpunk, strong atmosphere, pixel art, and stealth.

Steam review snapshots
Gunpoint is an amazing stealth puzzle game.Despite this, the short playing time of the levels gives them a high replay value, even if the solutions don't differ significantly.Good short game that doesn't overstay its welcome, and I really did love the way in which the gameplay allows for all…Lovely little stealth hacking game, fun story, very replayable.Why it fits
Good fit if you want stealth, narrative mystery, replayable structure, and a cyberpunk atmosphere. Stealth is part of the intended rhythm. The story and mystery thread through the experience. The game has replayable structure and strong atmosphere. Its cyberpunk, pixel-led style gives it a distinct feel.
Who might skip it
You want a long-form game. You do not want stealth-focused play. You prefer a less atmospheric experience.
