Silent Swords stealthily submitted for App Store approval
Stealth-heavy titles haven’t really penetrated the iPhone and iPod Touch’s overflowing stable of games. Even Metal Gear Solid Touch, a game from a series built on stealth-based gameplay, wasn’t all that sneaky. Those looking for a stealth game they can really sink their teeth into should probably keep an eye out for Oniric Games’ Silent Swords. It looks like a mix of classic sidescrolling action and all the sneakiness you can expect from a ninja trying to break out of a military facility.
