Beat Sneak Bandit
You"ve got to give it up to a game that makes it feel like your fingers are dancing and Beat Sneak Bandit does exactly that. The indie rhythm/stealth/puzzle hybrid turns players into a thief out to reclaim all the timepieces of a hapless town after they"ve been abducted by the evil Duke Clockface. The Bandit can only move in time with each level"s music, which makes navigating the puzzle-like structure of Clockface Mansion both extremely tricky and fantastically catchy.
A Good Match for: Folks with dance-floor insecurity. Maybe you"re an ungainly tangle of limbs when you and friends go out to hear bands play, despite being able to hear parts of the various songs that make you want to move. This happens to some of us. Because you can only take steps on the beat, BSB can help you groove with confidence. We promise you"ll feel cooler.
Not for Those Who Want: Musical variety. While Beat Sneak Bandit"s funk jazz instrumentals are nigh-irresistible, they don"t diverge from the game"s groove-centric norm. Those wondering how different genres of music—like, say, country or classical—might affect the experience can only dream of pilfering to the sounds of Stravinsky.
