What is Counter steal butterfly
A quiet, nerve-wracking puzzle where every shadow can hide you—or betray you. Test your patience and nerve in this stylish stealth escapade.
How to Play
Use the arrow keys or WASD to move, and sneak by staying in cover or moving while guards look away. Reach the butterfly and then make your escape to the exit point without being spotted.
Tips for Playing
- Always watch the guard’s line of sight before moving into the open.
- Use shadows and objects to break line of sight and move undetected.
- Time your movements with guard patrol cycles—patience beats speed.
- If spotted, don't panic; sometimes backtracking to a safe zone resets the alert.
- Study the level layout first; knowing where the butterfly and exit are is half the battle.
