  • Unique and engaging stealth gameplay set in a historically accurate 16th century Antwerp with impressive atmosphere and level design.
  • Smooth character movement and satisfying stealth mechanics that encourage planning, using gadgets, and alternative routes.
  • Remarkably polished graphics, lighting, sound, and voice acting for a free student project with promising potential for full release.
  • The game is very short, more of a demo with limited content and a brief playtime around 40-50 minutes.
  • Numerous bugs and glitches affect progress and gameplay, including stuck objectives, broken achievements, clunky controls, and AI issues.
  • Lacks depth in enemy AI behavior, combat options after detection, and some player feedback mechanics, needing further polish and content expansion.

    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay offers a solid foundation of stealth mechanics with satisfying movement, rooftop climbing, and use of unique tools like a mechanical arm, but is hindered by technical issues, inconsistent controls, and some AI shortcomings. While many appreciate the engaging core mechanics and historical setting, the game feels more like a promising demo needing polish, deeper stealth elements, and refinement for a fuller experience. Overall, it shows great potential with enjoyable stealth gameplay that could shine in a more developed, polished release.

    • “Climbing rooftops, sneaking past guards, and using your mechanical arm to outsmart enemies feels satisfying.”
    • “The gameplay mechanics are smooth and intuitive, allowing for seamless movement and precise takedowns.”
    • “"sicaria" features the classic stealth mechanics typical of the genre, but it stands out for its setting in 16th century Spain, a historical context that’s not often seen in video games.”
    • “In-game mechanics feel a bit choppy, it reminds me a bit of an Assassin's Creed-like game.”
    • “There's definitely some needed improvement like AI intelligence, level design, and item mechanics.”
    • “I understand the game is free and was a student project; however, until they at least make the buttons/mechanics work consistently, I simply cannot recommend this game as a quality product.”
  • story
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in the game is basic but provides clear goals and motivation for the main character, serving primarily as a backdrop for the engaging stealth gameplay. While some players found it promising, they felt it lacked depth and could benefit from more development and polish, especially in mission progression and bug fixes. Overall, the storytelling supports the immersive and thrilling experience but leaves room for expansion in future versions.

    • “The stealth was engaging, the story wasn't anything too developed but it gives you goals and a motivation for the main character.”
    • “When I first saw 'Sicaria,' two things caught my attention: first, that it was free, and second, that it seemed to have an engaging story.”
    • “Overall, Sicaria is a triumph of stealth gaming, combining captivating gameplay, stunning visuals, and immersive storytelling to create an experience that is as thrilling as it is unforgettable.”
    • “One mission is just not enough.”
    • “There is a need for polishing and bug fixes; for example, if you finish a part of the mission and do it later, you can get locked in a mission where you have to 'kill the captain assumed to be Rodrigo,' causing the game to get stuck.”
    • “If this team ever makes a full-length version of this game or something similar with a bigger budget to improve gameplay, graphics, story, and acting, I would buy it.”
  • graphics

    • “If this team ever makes a full-length version of this game or something similar and has a bigger budget to really improve the gameplay, graphics, story, and acting, I'd buy it.”
    • “Pretty graphics, but I would love to see them mesh together a bit better, as I think it could be a great game.”
    • “The game crashed 5 times within the span of a few minutes, even with the graphic settings placed on low.”
