Hitman GO is a turn-based puzzle game with beautifully rendered diorama-style set pieces. You will strategically navigate fixed spaces on a grid to avoid enemies and take out your target or infiltrate well-guarded locations. You really have to think about each move and all the Hitman tools of the trade you would expect are included; disguises, distractions, sniper rifles and even 47’s iconic Silverballers.

With Hitman GO, you’ll experience:

• Challenging puzzles that put your assassination skills to the test
• Beautiful scale model-style visuals
• Environments with secret passageways and off-limit areas
• Agent 47’s tools of the trade: Distractions, disguises, hiding spots, sniper rifles and even the iconic Silverballers
• Different enemy types with unique and deadly behaviours
• Different ways of completing each level, silently or forcefully

Ratings and reviews

This is such a great game! I like the turn based aspect of it. Also, it really makes you think at times, which is nice too. The atmosphere is calm, and the art of the game is creative. I did pay to unlock all the hints for when i get stuck, but it was less than $10 (I actually think it was $5 which was the most expensive option for paying for hints, but I'm not 100% sure on that). Overall, it is a very cool game that any fan of Hitman will enjoy.

Hitman Go is the kind of game that, if not for the mobile space, you would only see on the NES or ancient PC's. It is a game that takes the core mechanics of the Hitman games- stealth, dodging guards, assassinations, and disguises- and distills them into their purest, most abstract form. Adding to its old school appeal is the fact that there's no story, no tutorial, no text whatsoever! Plus, the board game aesthetic is super creative, and really adds to the feeling of the game being a miniaturized abstraction of Agent 47's assassin hijinks. Intuitive pick up and play controls and great puzzle design make this one of the best games on mobile.

Hitman go has a stylish appearance that compromises readability. The camera plays against you, constantly moving in too close and limiting visibility of the board, if you zoom out is hard to read the elements of the board. The controls are not good either. Tomb raider fixed the camera angle and allowed you to drag anywhere on the screen to move, here we have to drag the character, already uncomfortable as it is the camera shifting all the time doesn't help. Good puzzles though.
