About Styx: Master of Shadows

About this game

Enter a dark fantasy world and become a masterful assassin with your Styx: Master of Shadows Steam PC key. In this infiltration game featuring RPG elements, you'll 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.

FROM THE DARKNESS

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'.

NOT YOUR AVERAGE GOBLIN

RPG mechanics let you unlock new powerful skills, impressive special moves, and 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!

YOUR OFFICIAL STYX: MASTER OF SHADOWS STEAM PC KEY INCLUDES:

  • An intricate story full of twists and revelations.
  • Distract, solve, smother and prowl with your clone.
  • Mission areas featuring truly organic player path-finding.
  • Upgrade your skills along six unique skill-trees to improve your stealth, assassination, and technique.
  • A strong focus on hardcore stealth and infiltration: progress through the shadows with a sense of verticality, and explore to find hidden treasures.

Compelling gameplay worth the time

Krackish
Verified purchase
The game is a hidden gem. Offers fun stealth game play and decent graphics. The story is a little lack luster but makes up for it in compelling game mechanics. The game runs well on steamdeck and I would highly recommend trying it out. Worth the time in my opinion.

Good stealth action game with well implemented system and well designed levels

Tommy
Verified purchase
Styx is an stealth-action game where our task is to infiltrate Tower of Akenash,where hooomanz and elves guard world tree full of amber that can be sell for tons of money. The stealth systems are well implemented and make game feel like a mix between assasins creed and shadow of mordor. We don't have to be perfect lurkers and have few combat options,but Styx is not much of a fighter and can be easily overwhelmed.
