Is True Lies still worth playing in 2026?

An adaptation of the Schwarzenegger film, True Lies has you play a secret agent fighting terrorists in top-down view, blending shooting, stealth and varied missions. The diversity of situations and the faithfulness to the film's spirit give some depth, in a presentation polished for a licensed game. The handling and an uneven difficulty require perseverance. An honest pick for fans of the film and lovers of retro top-down action after an above-average movie tie-in.
