There are only two ways to win in enemy territory: risking a fight or slipping by. When the odds are bad, it's better to play it smart. Sometimes, shadowy takedowns just don't cut it, and just as hidden military bases and battlefields can be dangerous, so can ballrooms and crowded streets. While a typical stealth game involves crouch-walking behind conveniently placed crates or waist-high concrete walls, social stealth prompts the player to blend in with the social environment by using specific disguises and behavior to seem as though they belong there.
