Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About The Saboteur
I went in expecting a straightforward WW2 shooter, but The Saboteur is really a stealth-focused action game about covert ops behind enemy lines. You play as an Irish race driver turned resistance fighter, sneaking through camps, disabling targets, and triggering chain reactions of sabotage. The level design rewards patience and reconnaissance over run-and-gun tactics, though you're not locked into one approach if alarms sound. The game's biggest strength is how it handles verticality and environmental destruction. Climbing scaffolding, using rooftops as cover routes, and rigging fuel depots to explode makes each mission feel less like a linear corridor and more like a puzzle you're solving with explosives. That said, mission objectives can feel repetitive after a few hours, and the AI isn't particularly sharp once you're spotted. If you want a scrappy, pre-2010 stealth game with real destructible levels and a pulp-fiction vibe, this scratches that itch. It's rough around the edges and nobody talks about it anymore, but that's partly because it was way ahead of its time.
