Roots in Stealth Cold War shares many similarities with the popular stealth franchise, Splinter Cell. The heads up display shows hiding information to the player in regard to visibility and audibility. This lets the player easily identify when enemies cannot see Carter due to shadows, or hear Carter from movement. Carter can also snap his fingers to attract a guard's attention, or throw objects to distract them. The action takes place from a third person perspective, with the camera snapping to over the shoulder movement with a reticule on screen when a weapon is drawn, similar to Splinter Cell. Gameplay Players can crouch, tip-toe, and shimmy on certain ledges to avoid detection by the enemy. Carter also prefers a non-lethal approach to incapacitating enemies, and chooses to construct weapons out of gathered materials, such as a plastic bottle, rags, or anesthetics. The player must combine each item in the proper order to created items like plastic bullets, or drugged rags to keep enemies unconscious longer. Players can also carry enemy bodies on their back, ensuring their hidden visibility to other patrolling guards. While at a computer console, Carter can see the view of any security cameras in the area, as well as a map for the entire level. Carter can also instruct his ally to sneak past guards. The two communicate via stolen walkie-talkies, while Carter’s partner gives advice on the whereabouts of helpful Russian documents. Once players have collected enough secret documents, Carter has enough intelligence to create a blueprint for a new item. These range from expanded plastic bullet clips, to timed gas bombs.
