Adventure Game Studio | Games | Death

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?)

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

"Aside from some interface issues and a couple of odd puzzles, it is a fun and interesting game."

3 people commented on this game (newest first):

This game has nice graphics, an interesting story and well-chosen music. However, the GUI is clumsy (hard to use exits, an inventory where the transparent parts block hotspots) and there is a huge lack of interactions. When you have a look and interact option for objects and you get either the same response for both or even only the single existing default response, this destroys atmosphere and immersion.

An amazing game! It has all that makes a great adventure game: a breathing world, zanny humor, interesting plot, likeable characters, catchy music, great hand drawn graphics, polished animations, and, above all, it's fun to play! Some of the puzzles are very original, too.

One more thing worth mentioning is that the authors were careful to make a tight game: each NPC character has a reason for being there, there are no randomly placed puzzle items, no Deus Ex Machina solutions, etc.

Probably the best AGS game I've played this year. Perfect score.
