About Styx: Master of Shadows

✦ AI summary

Sneak through a massive fantasy tower as Styx, a cunning goblin thief, using stealth, assassination, and magical amber powers to uncover your mysterious origins while stealing valuable treasures. Master multiple skill trees and create your own path through organic level design that rewards exploration and careful planning over direct combat.

Styx: Master of Shadows is an infiltration game with RPG elements taking place in a dark fantasy universe, where you sneak, steal and assassinate your way through as Styx, a Goblin two-centuries of age.

Deep inside the vertiginous and multi-layered forsaken Tower of Akenash, where Humans and Elves protect the World-Tree, source of the Amber – a powerful and magical golden sap – is hidden Styx’ chance to understand his true origin... and to make a fortune at the same time.

Prowl through the huge, miles-high Tower of Akenash, completing various missions (assassination, information recovery, etc.) and avoiding detection. Progress in the shadows, assassinate your targets in close combat, or orchestrate «accidents». RPG mechanics let you unlock new powerful skills, impressive special moves, and an optimized equipment. Amber will grant you spectacular powers such as invisibility, «amber vision», and the ability to clone yourself. Explore the levels to discover every bit of information about your past, and steal prized treasures to acquire equipment upgrades. Embrace the shadows!
  • Mission areas featuring truly organic player path-finding
  • A strong focus on hardcore stealth and infiltration: progress through the shadows with a sense of verticality, and explore to find hidden treasures
  • Upgrade your skills along six unique skill-trees to improve your stealth, assassination, and technique.
  • Distract, solve, smother and prowl with your clone
  • An intricate story full of twists and revelations

This is the most annoying and INCONSISTENT stealth game I have ever played.

This game is awesome and my childhood! Best stealth game out their imo. Some jankyness but that comes with the era. Other than that solid story, solid features, and a great feeling playing this game. Overall 9/10 game!!!!

Not my kind of game but the story kept me playing.
Recommended Sep 17, 2026
This is both an easy and uniquely difficult recommend for me. - The easy part is: I find the voice-acting, story, world and relationships of the different races to be interesting enough to pick up its sequel, "Shards of Darkness", while both the gameplay/levels are smooth and flexible enough to find your own unique way through which is great. - The difficult part (extremely minor spoilers) is that the second half of the game repeats a lot, with some new ones, of the levels you've already treaded through with new enemy placements, collectibles and smaller new sections to explore. What makes this a problem is that I'm a one big playthrough kinda guy, and them adding new collectibles to repeated levels I've already explored was a giant ask. Granted if you're not an idiot like me, they do offer an end game ability to help find collectibles easier but then you'd be asking me to run the level a third time. NAY I SAY!! I both enjoyed the game enough to continue on to the sequel while being disappointed and drained enough to be a mixed recommendation in my eyes.

Which Styx game to buy, and how cheap each one gets

Three Styx games, two of them near a dollar and one at full price. Which Styx game to buy comes down to our price record, and the Collection bundle is the trap.
