Dishonored vs Gone Home
Dishonored
Dishonored is one of the most highly acclaimed, first-person action-stealth game that puts you into the role of a supernatural assassin set in a city, Dunwall, where somehow technology and the paranormal collide.

Aside from your new-found ability to possess any living creature and stop time itself, you can use distractions and the pockets of darkness to your advantage as well. Interestingly, your chosen way to kill will affect the world around you and the outcomes of your missions will also change as a result. There are plenty of ways for you to customize your character to fit your play style too.
Since its release, Dishonored has garnered a massive amount of approval from fans and critics alike. After all, it has managed to provide a stealth-based game that's not only unique but also incredibly immersive and addictive to play. If you enjoy stealth games with a bit of extra mystique, this is definitely the game to buy!
