005

Released by Sega in 1981, *005* is a pioneering arcade title that stands as one of the earliest examples of a stealth-action game. Players take on the role of a secret agent tasked with delivering a briefcase of documents to a waiting helicopter while evading enemy guards through mazelike environments, such as warehouses and ice rinks. The game famously introduced the "vision cone" mechanic, which visualizes enemy fields of view and encourages tactical evasion rather than direct combat. Beyond its stealth elements, *005* is historically notable for being among the first games to feature a hub world and was produced for Sega's modular RasterScan "Convert-a-Game" system.
