A mixture of Thief, Assassin's Creed and Bioshock. Dishonored is like a shining star among first person titles.

The Bottom Line:
"Amazing"
At first, I didn't know what to think about this title. My friend thought that this is another Assassin's Creed. Finally I decided to give this game a try and I started playing it. I have to say that Dishonored is a pretty amazing first person game. It's not a shooter, it can be, but it's not actually. We play As Corvo, who is an assassin, so stealthy gameplay is much better here. The world in Dishonored is really dark and mature. Each and every location which we are gonna visit is very atmospheric. The art style of the world is amazing and climatic. What is more, the characters in the game and the overall storyline are interesting and surely keep our gameplay engaging. The protagonist - Corvo was a royal bodyguard with great fighting and stealth abilities. Later on, his is granted suberb magic abilities that make the gameplay even more fantastic.

Dishonored offers variety of weapons and gadgets for our assassin and the missions are really well done and interesting. The game is a mixture of Thief, Bioshock and Assassin's Creed. We have dark and mature atmosphere, stealthy gameplay, nice characters and interesting plot with missions which are very engaging. Nowadays, we have lots of different shooters like Modern Warfare or Battlefield, Dishonored is like a shining star among those first person titles. This is just a better game overall. We need such titles like Dishonored. I like stealth action games. So why Bioshock you may ask? The game's atmosphere is just as good as the one from Rapture. Why Thief? We sneak and steal things. Why Assassin's Creed? Well, Corvo is an assassin himself and we have variety of weapons just like Ezio for example. Don't get me wrong though, Dishonored is an original game, not a copy of something else. It just combines the best elements from those three installments, that's all.

The graphics are good and the soundtracks is nice. Too bad that Corvo doesn't speak. I hate it. Moreover, characters animation is great and stealth kills look awesome.

Overall, Dishonored is an amazing game and everyone who is tired of typical shooters and is looking for something original should definitely play this title.

Good: Dark and mature atmosphere as well as the art style of the world we play, interesting plot, engaging stealth mechanics, cool magic abilities, enaging missions

Bad: Corvo doesn't speak (no voice over), too short, graphics could be a little bit better

Gameplay: 9/10
Graphics: 7,5/10
Sound: 7,5/10
