Good one if you are looking for some real-time tactical action, and let's face it, we are anything but spoilt for choice when it comes to this genre. I can't bring myself to say that it's as good as Mimimi titles, and yet, the gap between them and Sumerian Six isn't too large in my experience, and I see no reason not to recommend the game. Extra points for the levels' visual design.

Great game. Great story. Unique powers make the gameplay immersive. Only negative i can say is it gets repetitive at times as some missions are very similar in map style and objectives. I have played a lot of games in this genre like Desperados series, Commandos series, Shadow Tactics, Shadow Gambit, Robinhood etc and I can say Sumerian Six is a MUST play in this genre.

There are two ways to review this game: for people who haven’t played a stealth tactics game by Mimimi Games, and for people who have. If you haven’t, here’s the pitch: you control a team of six characters, each with their own unique abilities, and stealthily distract, lure, and kill your way across beautifully designed maps to complete objectives. In this case, the setting is World War II, with a few magical elements thrown in for good measure. And wow, these characters really do seem to enjoy killing Nazis. If you’re the kind of person who posts “punch a Nazi” memes on Reddit, this may be the game for you. If you have played a stealth tactics game by Mimimi, though, then you already know the deal. In fact, it all felt so familiar that I booted up old Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun to compare, and a lot of it is almost identical, right down to the ability types and hotkeys. I’m guessing some of the old designers moved to Artificer, or maybe they got permission from Mimimi to borrow liberally from the formula. Either way, a lot has been polished up since the Shogun days: the UI is cleaner, and the graphics are prettier. I especially appreciated how fast quick save and quick load are, because you’ll be using them constantly. That said, I did find myself getting pretty frustrated at times. Every area feels absolutely packed with Nazis, with vision cones overlapping all over the place. I assume the goal was to make the game more challenging and push players to approach each encounter like a puzzle. As a result, every area becomes a slow process of peeling away patrols from the edges, and the slightest misclick can blow the whole thing up. I really wish there were a toggle between sneaking and running, because I lost count of the number of times I meant to sneak somewhere and accidentally sent a character sprinting straight into danger. Still, I’m giving it a thumbs up. The frustrations are real, but they’re fairly minor in the grand scheme of things. Overall, it’s a well-made stealth tactics game, and definitely worth picking up, especially on sale.

This game is inferior to the games of the late MImimi games studio (Shadow of the Shogun, Desperados 2, etc.) in many places: graphics (especially cinematics) are rather poor. A few places, I felt like the situation was set up for me to use one specific ability from one of my companions. But overall, it checks of the boxes for a game of the genre. Powers make for interesting strategic choices, and a few are really novel, and the story, if nothing original, is nice to follow. Love that all nazis speak actual untranslated german.

**Sumerian Six Review** *Sumerian Six* ended up being a small, pleasant surprise. After Mimimi shut down shortly after *Shadow Gambit*, I honestly expected this genre to slowly disappear again. Real-time tactics stealth games are already niche, and Mimimi had basically been carrying the modern version of that formula with *Shadow Tactics*, *Desperados III*, and *Shadow Gambit*. So seeing *Sumerian Six* step in and deliver something this close in style and quality was genuinely nice. And make no mistake: this is basically *Desperados III* or *Shadow Tactics* in a new setting. Alternate timeline Nazis are trying to take over the world using supernatural powers, and it gives the game a pulpy, weird-war flavor that actually works really well. Nazis as villains feel “fresh enough” again in this context, especially with the supernatural angle layered on top. In 2005, I probably would have rolled my eyes. In 2026, somehow, I am back on board. Technically, the game looks good. And if you did not know this was made by Artificer instead of Mimimi, you might not immediately notice. The formula, controls, structure, and pacing are all very familiar. Yes, the production budget is clearly lower. You do not get the same level of fully animated cutscenes or presentation polish, but honestly, for this genre, that is not a dealbreaker. You get six characters with different abilities, exactly as you would expect. There are a few new tricks and cool ideas, but overall this is not an evolution of the genre. It is more of the same — and depending on your appetite for this kind of game, that is either a criticism or a compliment. For me, it is mostly a compliment. That said, I did miss some of the more detailed systemic elements from Mimimi’s games. Things like footprints in snow that enemies could notice in *Desperados III* or *Shadow Tactics* added a great tactical layer. Night levels in *Desperados III* also played beautifully with cones of light, giving you environmental tools to plan around. *Sumerian Six* does not really push those ideas. Night enemies behave and read almost exactly like daytime enemies, and I kept thinking that rain, darkness, tracks, or other environmental systems could have added a lot. The supernatural abilities do bring variety, though. They are fun, creative, and give the game its own identity. But toward the end, they can become a little overpowered. The final missions felt noticeably easier to me than comparable late-game levels in Mimimi’s games. At a certain point, *Sumerian Six* starts feeling less like strict tactical stealth and more like a small power fantasy where your squad can dismantle entire maps with increasingly absurd tools. The one unique element I really want to praise, though, is the XP crate system. Hidden throughout the maps are optional crates that reward skill XP, and this does a fantastic job of making exploration and secondary objectives feel worthwhile. In many games like this, going beyond the main objective is only motivated by “well, I guess I want to play more.” Sometimes it even feels ludonarratively weird, because the characters are supposed to be on a dangerous mission, yet the game wants you to spend extra time optimizing everything. *Sumerian Six* solves that problem beautifully. Bonus objectives and hidden crates directly feed into skill upgrades, and those upgrades are actually rewarding. That made me want to fully engage with every mission. I ended up finishing all 10 missions with every crate collected and every bonus objective completed — not because I had to, but because the game made it feel satisfying. So if you are looking for a real-time tactics stealth game in the vein of *Commandos*, *Desperados*, *Shadow Tactics*, and *Robin Hood*, this is absolutely worth checking out. I have been a fan of this genre since *Commandos 1* and *Robin Hood*, which are now somehow almost 30 years old, and *Sumerian Six* scratched that exact itch. It does not reinvent the wheel, and it is not quite on Mimimi’s level when it comes to systemic depth or encounter design. But it understands the assignment. A fun, stylish, slightly pulpy tactics game that keeps the genre alive — and for that alone, I am very happy it exists.
