Gunpoint

You play a freelance spy taking jobs to infiltrate high-security buildings and steal sensitive data. A noir-inspired story of murder and espionage unfolds through missions and conversations with clients.

Use the Crosslink to inspect how a building’s security devices are connected, then reroute them to open doors, trigger traps, or turn guards’ own equipment against them. Move through 2D levels, avoid or confront guards, and find a route to each objective.

Missions allow different approaches, from quiet and non-violent to more aggressive, and dialogue choices can affect the story. You can buy specialist gadgets, tackle optional harder puzzles, replay missions, or create levels with the editor.

Players often enjoy the rewiring puzzles for encouraging experimentation and creative solutions, along with the freedom to approach missions stealthily or aggressively. Witty dialogue and the soundtrack are also recurring highlights. Some players find the campaign very short, and a few mention display or resolution problems.
