A spy thriller without thrills, March 11, 2021This game is a spy thriller, just like the last Choice of Games entry I played, 'It's Killing Time'.
But in a way, they're kind of opposites. 'It's Killing Time' was a series of one blood bath after another with overwrought emotions.
By contrast, Undercover Agent is, at times, bland. You are an agent for a generic government agency, and you work undercover at a fairly generic company. Everything in this game is done competently, but it just didn't 'pop' for me.
The stats had some good variety, but most choices for stats were fairly simple. The big choices that you could make in the game were 'like your bosses and be nice to them' or not, and 'blackmmail people or not'.
In a lot of ways, this game reminds me of my own game I wrote for CoG, so I definitely don't think I could do better, personally. But, just like my game, I feel like this could have used a little bit more. I think that as of now, my favorite spy game from CoG is 180 Files: The Aegis Project.
