A stealth game that turns you into a predator rather than prey. Mark of the Ninja is an engaging sandbox of stealth.

Mark of the Ninja did something that I find remarkable: it made the stealth game approachable, without compromising the genre. Now if you excuse me, I have a stop a man that's been corrupted by the tendrils of technology.
