How could you not mention Mark of the Ninja? You even mentioned a game from the same developer.
I'm not sure I would consider Signal Ops to be an exceptional stealth game really.
No Styx: Master of Shadows?
Logically speaking they did list 6 games worth shining a light on (except for maybe signal ops as mentioned but I never played it).That doesn't imply other games like Mark of the Ninja aren't worthy.
Why is Amnesia on this list?

Stealth Inc 2 is great, but it's more of a puzzle game than a stealth game.
[QUOTE=Swiket;47775335]Amnesia and Outlast don't need a light shined upon them, they're already fairly well known games.[/QUOTE] Not to mention the Stealth kind of takes a back seat to the horror and running around imo.
[QUOTE=cdr248;47774916]I'm not sure I would consider Signal Ops to be an exceptional stealth game really.[/QUOTE] Is it good at least? I've had my eye on that game for a bit and I liked the 60s aesthetic.
Could someone make a game about sneaking into the building where Shack's web server is located and destroying it?
How the FUCK are Outlast and Amnesia STEALTH games? The stealth is so basic. Hide somewhere till monster disappear Shacknews everyone...
Outlast is not a stealth game nor would I recommend it to anyone, unless you enjoy running away while looking for an arbitrary objective ~10 times in a row.

[QUOTE=gk99;47787810]Just play Gunpoint and pretend you're taking down Shacknews one level at a time.[/QUOTE] you just gave me an idea for a custom level
[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;47774965]No Styx: Master of Shadows?[/QUOTE] Styx is more middle market than indie. And the whole list just goes to show how much of a slump the stealth genre is in right now that not even the wide-eyed indie scene is all that interested in producing a classic stealth game.
