Hidden Escape: Secret Agent 9+

Fun!

Pretty fun to pass time, puzzles that make you think, some a bit too difficult to solve without the walkthrough, but the walkthroughs are nice and generally show how you get the answer. I liked the cocky and funny spy and the visuals are pretty good. The story could be a bit more spiced up but not too bad and I like the inclusion of Asian characters. And I liked that it wasn’t item search type of puzzles. Wish it was longer! But it’s free, and doesn’t take up much space so worth it if you’re looking for spy themed puzzle adventure. 👍😎

For developers, to take this from great to stellar you could vary the puzzles more and up the interactivity with the environment. And for the story, complicate the plot more, deepen the characters a bit and the way they interact with each other/their relationships. And it’d be cool to continue with these characters as a series in other scenarios/locations, since we’re already familiar with them and it’d be fun to see them again.

Casual fun, didn’t enjoy the action

For a free game, this is top notch. It’s pretty long and the puzzles are on par with others in the genre. The dialogue is kinda over the top but they lean into the absurdity of it so I like it. Parts of the UI felt kind of slow. Like I had to wait for a message to disappear before I could click something else. That may or may not be true, just felt not as peppy as, say, the Haiku games.

Action scenes were frustrating for me. Maybe there’s a strategy for the punching but I just hammered the two punch buttons until the block or power up were available. It usually worked but wasn’t satisfying. Didn’t enjoy the shooting segments either. Once or twice maybe but having to get four or five headshots to escape a prison changed the dynamic of the game too much for my liking.

Still it’s hard to argue you don’t get bang for your buck. I’m guessing it’s free so the developers can get relatively constructive feedback so here I am. Though I wish them luck, I personallly wouldn’t want to sift through a sea of “it no work” comments to get something useful.

Good game with one flaw

I like the games this developer makes and I hope they will create more. For a free game, I thought it was well done and the commercial interruptions were not bad at all. My one critique that for this game was the annoying shooting action, especially when you have to get 5 guys in a row, with almost no mistakes permissible. You go from having a game where you can take your time and use your mind to solve puzzles to suddenly being able to have precise eye/hand coordination. I am not any good at that style game and specifically avoid precision shooter style games for that reason. It was a small miracle I passed that stage. Pick a genre, guys. But other than that frustrating disappointment, it went back to puzzles, so I was able to finish the game.
