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 underrated!

(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!

About this game

"Dark Times: Merry Christmas" is the very first installment in my "Dark Times" series. It tells a sad story about a little boy who lives in a wooden hut with the rest of his family. His brother goes outside to collect wood but doesn't return. Find out what's going on! If you want this game to have its full effect, then switch your lights off while playing it! The "Dark Times" series is characteristic by its use of black and white colors and economic graphics, as well as dealing with "dark" topics. This one is bleak and sad but not all "Dark Times" games will be like this. A universal rule in my games: To open any door, use the "grab cursor" and some hitboxes might be small or tricky so give them more tries. Anyway, have fun!

Anyone who thinks 2020 has been a bad year should go and experience the life of Billy, in this creepy dark adventure. The voice acting is right on par with this game.

Michael2968: Thank you :) I am gonna create a continuation but as first, I am probably gonna release some unrelated episodes of "Dark Times" to create some basic lore.

This is a fun but dark game. I would like to see a continuation of this game in the future.
