These items prove to be crucial during some of the later parts of the game, and item management becomes almost as important as Amber.
These range from new upgrades for your clones, to the ability to craft advanced traps such as acid trip-mines that instantly dissolve the bodies of any enemy that walks over them.
Developer Cyanide Studios has had two games to establish some of the deep lore of the Styx universe, and it is definitely reflected in everything from the writing, to each of the game’s levels.Īs you eventually complete different missions and side objectives, you’re rewarded with points that you can invest in different skill trees to unlock new powers or different items or traps to craft. Although a basic understanding of the world and the races that inhabit it will certainly go a long way towards helping you better understand some of the in-game politics and the motivations of the characters, Styx: Shards Of Darkness is very much its own self contained story. If you haven’t played any of the previous games in the series, fear not, because it doesn’t really matter all that much. The game does away with a lot of the wishy-washy filler content we have come to expect from the genre, and instead provides us with a more focused traditional hardcore stealth experience akin to what you might find in some of the older Splinter Cell games. A sequel to 2014’s Styx: Master of Shadows, and the third entry in the Of Orcs and Men series of games, Styx: Shards Of Darkness will not appeal to everyone.
