Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell is a series of award-winning action-adventure stealth video games , the first of which was released in 2002, and their tie-in novels. The protagonist, Sam Fisher , is a highly-trained agent of a fictional black-ops sub-division within the NSA , dubbed "Third Echelon". The player guides Fisher, who usually has the iconic trifocal goggles at his disposal, to overcome his adversaries in levels based on Unreal engines that were extended to emphasise light and darkness as gameplay elements. All the console and PC games in the series were critically acclaimed, and the series is commercially successful. The series, along with Assassin's Creed , is considered to be one of Ubisoft's flagship franchises. [ 1 ] [ edit ] Games
