Death to Spies is as cheap as a tin of soup right now
Promising! My first hour with Death to Spies: Moment of Truth suggests the 88p I lavished on it earlier today was money well spent. Included in Steam’s ongoing (July 24th to 31st) Stealth Fest, Haggard’s 2009 WW2 sneak-em-up feels like a cross between Hidden & Dangerous and Hitman.

Inside, the click-clack of clashing pool balls and the faint groans of a Limey cue pusher struggling to find form. My $10K first-to-five-frames showdown with Virtual Pool 4’s top dog does not start well.
