Quick Look: Hitman Go

Agent 47 seems to have forgotten were he put his Silverballers. It would have made these levels a lot easier if he had them.

Great ending!

i find it funny (and cool) how GB's giving them all this exposure in lieu of properly being advertised.

i'm waiting for the dirty pieces mod.

This looks pretty damn spify

Thanks, that's cool to hear. I'll probably pick this up, then.

Do they acknowledge how Hudreds-y it is here and there? The UI and some of the music are definitely reminding me of that game. Which hey, if you want slick and clean, there are far worse to emulate from. All credit for the idea and the rest goes to the team that made this of course.

Also as a person who has fluctuated between active dislike and mild interest in Hitman, I would bet this is the most fun I'd have playing anything with Hitman on it ever.

I don't usually mind...but Brad is terrible on this game!

I don't know why Brad feels like he has to advance his game progress during quick looks. He could have just played through one of the levels he had already played through so we could see more of Hitman Go. Sometimes these are hard to watch, especially if the people playing don't have a solid grasp of the mechanics and don't know what they're looking for.

For some reason....I can't get this out of my head when watching this vid... "Have I ever told you the definition of insanity..." lol

Anything to do with Go? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(game)

47, your mission is to find Michael Transactions and terminate him, with extreme prejudice.

I understand as a gamer sometimes u get stuck but this was suuuuuuuper annoying at the start. Especially when the solution was so obvious

Also playing it on a 5s and having zero problems.

Really surprising just how great this game is after coming from nowhere.

What are the odds that the game ends with a cutscene of Agent 47 putting away his dioramas and getting ready for another mission? That's totally what this is, right? His dioramas for planning his missions?

Welcome to the Brad school of Quick Looks. Start in the hardest place possible so no one can learn how the game actually plays.

100% this. It's a really unbearable combo with his many assumptions and judgements (often stated in objective or informed terms when they're anything but). I can't stand it when Brad says "I really just wanna-," because it's never fun for anyone else.

I hope they release it on a proper device.

BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD

@hassun: I heard they designed it as a physical game with one of the designers playing the AI, but it wouldn't exactly be practical or fun to keep track of all those AI every turn. Especially when you start changing their patterns with rock throws.

I've been going through this game fairly methodically, getting all the secondary objectives before moving on. Only just finished the second board but I think this game is fantastic.

The story telling in the levels is minimal but really well executed as well. I'm sure people more familiar with the Hitman games than I am will recognise story beats.

Sweet. I could use something cool to play on my phone.

This looks pretty great, but I couldn't make it more than a few minutes into the video. Watching people play puzzle games is always frustrating to me, unless the person playing is super amazing or doing something weird. I just want to try it myself!

Feel like tearing my head off watching the first 15 minutes. It was skull smashingly obvious what to do right away.

This game looks dope!

I really love the artsytle of this. The whole board game thing is such a cool ascetic.

Great QL and awesome little game can't wait for the android version.

Also of course you all see the solutions when he doesn't he is talking AND your just watching that is every puzzle game in the world the person sitting over someones shoulder always picks up on the solutions first.

:teambrad

I'd love for this to come to Steam or consoles.

If you click on the Lightbulb in the Right corner, you will get a count on how many moves you have left, if one of the secondary objectives are finish the level under a specific number of moves.

Brad was commenting that you did not have any indicator during the QL :)

This is such a neat idea. Too bad I don't own any iDevices.

Please come to steam cause i have no ipad or decent iphone!

DAT ENDING

I don't own a smartphone or tablet so I really hope they bring this to PC or consoles because this looks like a great puzzle game.

I feel like this game was all whatever until I saw it in action. Really cool looking.

Watching these puzzle quicklooks always make me scream at the screen.
"BRRRAAAAAAAADDD"!!! Dammit.

I didn't know what to think about Hitman Go. After watching this I can be assured my $5 will be put to good use.

The first 15 or so min of this quick look were frustrating to watch at times but the rest of it is fine and they end up bringing it to a satisfying conclusion in the end.

Haha. I just discovered that I had this problem. Never had it before, but I was yelling at the screen for about 10 minutes of this.

Two great minds at work here...

"They just need to add a tilt-shift mode."

Blech. I can't think of a game where tilt-shift emulation has been successful.

To those who are watching, don't worry, Brad starts figuring things out after the first 15 minutes of banging his head against that first level, which makes the ending all the more worth it.

First impression was that this would be a terrible QL game, but actually... I'd watch some more.

Please come to consoles <3

Has anyone tried this on an iPad 2? I'd like to know if there are any performance issues before making the plunge.

I bought the game because of Brad's trouble with the first Quick Look puzzle. I wanted to see if I could finish it. Great promo for the game, lol.

I'm only smart enough to know I'm stupid, and I only had to use a light bulb on the last level finishing the level in 47 moves. I would not say it's a hard game. It's semi-challenging later, but totally approachable.

@rvone I played the whole thing on an iPhone 4s and it ran fine.

Uh, I think I'll get this. Haven't bought a game for my iPad in a while. Kind of a sad that the little spin-off for mobile devices is a better product than the last main entry in the franchise.

Also, Square putting out an iOS game that's not F2P. What the hell?

PS: Brad is bad at games.

i want this game.... i just need to wait for a android version hopefully... blah
