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 Cup	Not serious entertainment
2 Cups	A reasonable game, worth a try
3 Cups	A good game, worth playing
4 Cups	A great game, well worth your time
5 Cups	An 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 impressive MAGS entry has a female protagonist solving puzzles and shooting down enemy planes on her quest to find her dad. Aside from a few grammar mistakes, action and adventure fans will find a lot to like with this short but fun little game. "

I really enjoyed this small funny game. I didn't need any hints for adventure part and I needed only one attempt for the arcade part. Great game for MAGS.

Amazing little MAGS game, your backgrounds are bluffing me.

I actually found the arcade part of the game to be better than the adventure, and I mean that in a good way. On hard mode, or whatever that button was at the end, the game is most challenging, and winning it felt quite rewarding.

I think this may contradict the comments made below, but I believe this to be because a newer version 1.1 has been implemented since then that has improved the arcade part.

The adventure is alright too, and well made up for a MAGS entry.

Great graphics. It's amazing this was pulled off for a MAGS entry. The music and audio effects are very well balanced and fit the game extremely well. The character portraits are well done, and their personalities, too, though the characters were too "manga-ish" for my taste.

The puzzles were OK, but I was put down by the compulsory action sequence. After several utterly boring minutes of shooting down airplanes with absolutely no challenge at all --which actually defeats the point of an action sequence-- you need to shoot down a carrier to the bottom of the sea, while the difficulty shoots up to the high sky. I put up a fight but eventually I lost. I considered replaying the arcade section looking forward to the next adventure part, but when I picked the "restart the level" option the game crashed, so I left it alone.

Still the art of the game was great, so kudos to the authors for that.
