Description
Loyalty carries a price and no one knows this more than agent Michael Thorton. A talented young agent cast out by his government, Thorton is the only one with the information needed to stop an impending international catastrophe. To do so means he must cut himself off from the very people he is sworn to protect. As players determine how to accomplish different objectives, the decisions made and actions taken in each mission will ultimately transform the type of secret agent Michael Thorton will become. Every choice the player makes as Michael Thorton will carry consequences for his future and the fate of the world.

Fun spy game with actual choices

One of my favorite games of all time. Gameplay for the moment to moment parts of the game can be fiddly but the story is great and your choices actually do matter the overall trajectory of the game. GOG's work on this fixed some the more annoying bugs that came with playing this on modern computers. Highly recommended.

Digital Spy TV Show.

It's not bad. But it's not very good. I went into the game under the impression that it's going to be some elaborate plot and that I'll be wowed by the quality of it. It's fine. My expectations were a bit higher than they should've been.

Often very frustrating

(About 9h into it, though with a ton of trial and failure in figuring the mechanics out.) Yes, the story/dialogue and decision system seems impressive. And so easy to fuck up (and then difficulty to undo unless you manually saved last checkpoint). While many playstyles probably work, I find there being too many sections where they break the stealth for me. And with the pistol being useless beyond 6-10 meters, it takes a long time waiting for the perk to cool down to get more "long range" shots in. The most annoying part is how much room for improvement there is. Like hanging out with a really funny and interesting friend, who at random times punches you in the face.

Flawed

I hate much of the gameplay, I hate the minigames. But I really like the IP and there aren't really any alternatives. The role-playing and story aspect is great, the writing is fun. Guess I'll have to suffer a bit for all the good parts...
