Abstract: Volume is the second game lead by Mike Bithell, creator of Thomas Was Alone. Instead of being a purely narrative driven game like his previous effort, Volume builds something that feels much more traditional as a video game. What we have here is a stealth...

Abstract: One of the most refreshing things about Volume, Mike Bithell's second game after the charming Thomas Was Alone, is that the design is entirely naked. This isn't a game that tries to hide its systems behind a fig leaf of "immersion". It's not a game that w...

A variety of enemies and sneaking methods. Lets you build and share levels. Interesting story.
Simplistic character and structure designs. Repetitive gameplay. Enemies are too forgiving
Volume has an intriguing story and fun stealth techniques, but the game's repetitive mission structure and easy-to-evade enemies keep it from being one of the genre's standout titles...
A stealth game built to satisfy the central tenets of the genre in the most discrete, distilled, trimmed-down way possible. Certainly well-crafted, but simply not that engaging...

Abstract: Thomas Was Alone, Mike Bithell's charming 2010 platformer about the inner lives of hopping geometric shapes, was an experiment in the power of storytelling to triumph over abstraction. Volume, Bithell's new game, is also a successful experiment in abstr...

Inventive level design and tight mechanics combine to create an intelligent stealth game, Visual cues provide the necessary hints without immediately offering a solution, Fantastic voice acting
Intrusive storytelling gets in the way of gameplay, Player movement sometimes continues after you want it to stop

Excellent maps, Superb visual design
Checkpoint system needs work, Some enemy AI is disappointing
Abstract: About This GameSummaryGame EditionsLocksley doesn't kill. That would be far too easy. Instead, he commits his crimes through stealth. Sneaking, distracting, avoiding. He is never seen, and seldom heard. As he grows in popularity and notoriety, so will his...

Volume's one hundred bite-sized levels will take a total of five to six hours to complete, with each level lasting about a minute to three minutes...
Ottimo level design, Meccaniche di gioco divertenti e abbastanza varie, Visivamente intrigante
Checkpoint gestiti in modo approssimativo, Traduzioni italiane deficitarie
Volume è uno stealth game purissimo, privo degli elementi action tipici di Metal Gear Solid, concettualmente vicino a un puzzle game per la maniera in cui dovremo affrontare ciascuna guardia. La storia è gradevole ma non riesce a spiccare il volo, i doppi...
