I was really excited for this game and had been following it’s progress for months, but when it finally came out it was nearly unplayable. The first 45 or so minutes were as great as I expected, but as I progressed, the game as a whole seemed to fall apart at the seams. Glitches, inconsistent controls, and spotty performances made me have to take frequent breaks that lasted days. The only thing bringing me back was thinking “ I payed the money, it’s suppose to be short, let me at least see where this goes”. I completely ignored the several deviations because I “just wanted to get through it” which is something I never want to say about a video game.

This game is a first person survival horror game that is very strange and a little unsettling. The overall experience is let down by bad AI, sloppy controls and mediocre graphics. The game is very aptly titled.

Shame for the bugs and issues the games has. I’d wait a little before getting this one as it has major issues the dev’s Are addressing. It’s kind of unplayable at the moment but I’d say in a day or too should be good to go. It’s not for everyone but it’s different.

When i saw awhile back that this game was coming out i was pumped, the the reviews came and absolutely slaughtered this game. After much back and forth inner monologue and a sweet cheap price i bought the game. Now i will not lie this game is hard as hell ( get it lol) but once you change the sensitivity of the controls and get used to the inner workings of the game its actually very good. Alot of repeated graphics in the environment department and npcs but its still a very cool looking environment. For the developers first game they made id say they did a great job

The concept of the game is great but that is about all this game has going for it. Screen tearing in the middle of the screen in this day and age is unacceptable. It takes you right out of the game. Cheap one hit kills with no way to protect yourself abound also. I wanted to like this game and support small studio physical copies but I wish I would of waited on reviews or the inevetable price slash in two weeks because they printed too many copies. They could always patch it and make me eat my words though.

This game is not the greatest. It’s a very cool concept though. The imagery is nuts and unique and it’s sort of fun exploring the underworld. There’s a lot of shortcomings though.

I waited and waited with excitement for Agony. When it finally released I picked it up with high hopes for it. Sadly, it was a disaster from the start. Terrible controls and gameplay that I decided to hold off for updates. When updates came, game was still not very fun at all. Since then, I've given up on it sadly. Hopefully their next game learns from Agony's mistakes.

I know a minority of the players bought this for the nudity. The atmosphere wasn’t bad. The bugs at launch caused most of problem.

Keep checking for game updates by the developers because this was plagued by glitches right after release.

This game is absolutely horrid. Game is obviously supposed to be dark but it’s almost to the point where you can’t even see EVEN with the lights off. The game play is just boring & repetitive. Stay away. Game absolutely sucks.
