Game Overview:

"Stolen" is a stealth-based video game where players step into the shoes of Anya, the protagonist who embarks on daring cat burglar missions equipped with various cutting-edge gadgets. These include night vision goggles and a versatile dart gun. Unlike many game characters, Anya adheres to a strict moral code and doesn't employ lethal weapons. Instead, players can only temporarily incapacitate guards and adversaries encountered throughout the game. A crucial ally in Anya's capers is the computer expert, Louie Palmer, who maintains communication via an earpiece. GameSpot's review acknowledged the game's "Prince of Persia-inspired feats" but mentioned that the main challenge in "Stolen" lies in mustering the patience to remain hidden instead of recklessly charging through levels.
