Hidden & Dangerous: Action Pack

The missions have some neat ideas, and I can appreciate the ambition, but the clunky mechanics and dated presentation really got under my skin. I felt like I was constantly wrestling with the game just to do the simplest things. You move with the arrow keys, and it's a third-person action game, so you have to have three hands. Use two hands for arrow keys and other keys on your keyboard, while your third hand should use the mouse to make use of the camera. I tried to change the controls, but the game LOCKS movement behind the arrow keys, and that SUCKS! I know there’s a decent tactical game buried in here somewhere, but for me, it was like trying to polish a rusty tank. The graphics are also nostalgic, but for 2026 they look ridiculously bad.

I do not recommend this game. It looks like an older shooter like Medal of Honor, but the controls are very strange. You can only move using the arrow keys specifically, not WASD? I get it's an older game, but I couldn't even find a way to change the controls when I noticed that. It's locked to that strange configuration. Long story short, this is a very frustrating game. Maybe on Steam Deck someone could find a controls layout that fixes the problem? But it's not worth the effort for me. I'm not going to waste the time I have to refund it by tweaking a game I can't know I'll enjoy.

Although the graphics may appear rough today, this game was released in 2000 and is still worthy of recognition overall
