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

A tape trader acquires a copy of an unaired quiz show episode. Is it just her imagination, or is it changing with each rewatch...?

AGS Panel Review

"Part quiz game, part visual novel. By nature repetetive, but with some interesting developments along the way.
Edit: Due to positive player feedback, the panel has reevaluated this game and given one extra cup."

4 people commented on this game (newest first):

I loved the old-school visual style and the game had some great ideas. I had no idea what was going on but it was all so deliciously disturbing.

Wow! What looks to be a simple quiz game turns out to be so much more! Highly recommend this one.

Got a ping saying that the download link for the game is broken. Seems to be working fine on my end, but in the meantime I'll repost the itchio link here: https://falselyprofound.itch.io/beat-the-buzzer

Will work on mirror links once I'm done with the post-gamejam build.

Ok, I like trivia quizzes and I'm a horror fan. So I liked this.
