This game is, of course, hilariously bad, but also quite... sincere, I guess, is the word. You can tell that its creators cared deeply for its incoherent story, ridiculous worldbuilding, and poorly drawn characters. Not enough to give the game a thumbs up, but kind of charming, in a way. I've also found the music surprisingly good.

I wouldn't pay full price for this but it's not bad. Originally in Russian(?), the English isn't how a native speaker would talk, but it's understandable/good. It's still early access, but there isn't anything I saw that needs a change. The story isn't amazing, but it's cool. There isn't much character development but the personalities are realistic, although a little cliché. (But that's just human nature isn't...

A 3/10 effort. This is pretty much what not to do with the Ren'Py engine. The underlying concept of this game is sound, but it's the delivery. This is yet another Russian made Ren'Py game that insists on quick time events, which really don't suit the visual novel/adventure genre. Send that dross back to Tomb Raider where it belongs. It's a shame because even with the poor English translation, there's a decent story...

This was agony to play. Horrible art style (using the term style very loosely), a twist end that would make M. Night Shyamalan cringe It was all a dream , awkward nudity scenes, horrible stock music, monsters that would make most Deviantart users shake their heads, painful QTE's that added nothing to the rexperience, unlikeable characters. The setting of the story could of been something that made for an...

There's a similarly-titled, yet much better-known horror game that came out recently which has, er...copped a bit of flak of late. As someone who played that game for only an hour or so, before opting to wait for future updates/improvements, I have to say: it still had a darn sight more going for it than this utter pile of dreck. What is it with Russians and visual novels? Or even Russians with horror games, for...

If you've come here looking for a great review on this game, then I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place. You see, it's a decent visual novel. It's not bad, it has a story, it has choices that play out good or bad, and definitely has the suspense and build up to it. As for if it's worth the money, it's hard to say. The story isn't long, but it is early access, so I'm being lenient as long as it does get worked on....

The Agony is a visual novel game with strong violent and sexual themes, currently in Early Access. I must say the writing style is not much to my liking but perhaps it just translates badly from Russian. Which is somewhat evident in some parts. The game is in episodic format so not all of it is available right now. Gameplay: The gameplay is much like any other visual novel with the exception of having "action"...

Quite frankly the most atrocious VN. It contains very poor graphical, story, soundtrack and gameplay aspects. Redeeming features are not to be found here. This trash belongs in the bin. Graphics: 2.5/10 I’m sure even the artist who drew the characters aren’t pleased with the results, but it’s not entirely the characters that brings the score down. It’s the “background art” (if you can call it that). Everything is...

Well, what to say. The only thing I really found appealing about this game was some of the music. However, the writing and the story, it's just bad. Half of the time you can't make sense of what the characters are trying to say. I think The Agony had a good amount of potential if it wasn't written so awkwardly. The game features strong sexual themes and violence. The choices do matter, leading you down multiple...

The Agony strikes me as a visual novel that had a good amount of potential. It has an interesting back story, some interesting characters and a good amount of choices but overall it doesn’t put it all together. The story doesn’t come to any real conclusion or even a cliffhanger, it just ends. No resolution given to many plot points. Many of the characters were well written but just go away with no explanation....
