The AGS Panel is a team of AGS forum veterans who play all of the games here, and give them ratings from one to five cups. The rating system is as follows:
1 CupNot serious entertainment
2 CupsA reasonable game, worth a try
3 CupsA good game, worth playing
4 CupsA great game, well worth your time
5 CupsAn outstanding, must-play game!
Feel free to disagree with the panel's rating, and please don't be offended if you think your game has been under-rated!

(Why has my game been rated 1 cup?)

Close window
If your game has been rated 1 cup, please don't be offended! It's common for your first game release to get a 1-cup rating, due to the game having a lack of polish and flair -- which is understandable, because you're just getting started!

Please understand that the main purpose of the ratings is to help potential game players find high quality, bug-free games to play. You've probably learnt a lot about AGS as a result of making your first game -- so why not use that knowledge to start afresh, and do even better with your next game!

AGS Panel Review

"This game shows some considerable effort on the part of Gepard to depict the misery (and hope) of a prisoner in Medieval times. In spite of some bugs, grammar issues and murky graphics, Medieval Prisoner affords the player with interesting character creation choices and puzzles and has good replay value."

3 people commented on this game (newest first):

This is a great game! The formula and atmosphere of the game are spot on and although the gameplay is essentially turn based it flows smoothly and well.

Whilst there are some issues with graphics and interface these are far outweighed by such an innovative and immersive style of game. Even when, in reality, your choices are a bit limited it feels like there is a lot to choose from and the more you play the more you discover.

A highly original game, plays nothing like your standard point and click. Its a really dark and depressing affair which draws you in, and makes you whince. Lots of fun and great replay value as you can experiment with the character creation and they all offer different routes to victory, or more likely gruesome death! Nice graphics and interface.

An interesing and unique game. The author tried to depict the life of a medieval prisoner, and he succeded: you will really feel the cold, the pain and the sorrow in that mouldy cell.
Plus, this game has a nice replay value.
Clunky at times (expecially the GUI / dialog boxes) but well worth downloading.
