Agent A: A puzzle in disguise

Played with my wife. Very cute fun game, good puzzles not too frustrating and keeps an alright pace. Some back and forth in parts but overall recommend

Such a fun and clever game. It is a puzzle game with some point and click and hidden object mixed in. I thought the puzzles were "just right" for a game like this. Got to pay attention to your surroundings for clues but not so convoluted that it becomes frustrating. I took my time with this one and really enjoyed clicking on items to see if they were interactive. Beautifully animated, voice over work was great and the music just set the finishing touches for the immersive experience.

One minor suggestion would be to add a "fast travel" option so the player doesn't have to click back as much. Maybe a map that allows the player to go to a specific location (so long as it has been discovered/unlocked) would reduce the number of "back clicks".

Although the humor didn't always land and the navigation got quite annoying by the end, I still had a good time with Agent A

It's fantastic, very fun and engaging and appropriate for all ages, it's obviously a light-hearted game that doesn't take itself too seriously. The dialogue is witty and is bound to make you chuckle for its use and parody of the common tropes in spy films. It might look like a mobile game but its graphics have a lot of charm and the music and sound design are fantastic. The puzzles are of the right kind of difficulty for me, they are not a walk in the park but aren't excruciatingly hard like in Myst or a game like that. The information is always there, the interface is easy to use and the environments are fun to navigate. It's the perfect kind of game to chill out and relax while listening to smooth jazz. All in all, Agent A is a perfect recomendation that is more than worth for its price tag.

LOVED this! I was so sad when it ended. I hope they make more!

10/10

Great game

A good point and click puzzle adventure that isnt too challenging. Would recommend for entry level gamers.

Very charming game. Cute graphics, silly jokes. The puzzles mostly aren't super complicated so while it might tease your brain a little it never feels like anything is hopeless. I bought it on sale and it was most definitely worth the money I bought it for (a couple bucks), but ymmv for full price.

Awesome game, highly recommended!

At first I wasn't sure i'd like this game , it's not my usual type but i gave it a try anyway , and frankly i'm glad i did , it's a quite fun and light game , the puzzles are well done ,especially those of chapter 3. Overall i had fun while playing it and i would recommend it to anyone who likes a little challenge in a cool atmosphere ^^

This is an excellent point-and-click adventure!

Nice game but the motion sickness is real haha

A lot of backtracking in the game requiring you to go back several screens for many steps. It's just more tedious than it is engaging

A little clunky in moving from place to place but then again what do I know. Fun game.

Recommended for: For the experienced puzzle-adventure gamer, it depends on your mindset. If you read the negative comments, the main criticisms are that the puzzles are too easy and there's practically no story. And I actually agree with that. Agent A doesn’t have an amazing story, brilliant puzzles, or impressive graphics like some bigger titles. But if you're an experienced gamer and you're in the mood for something light, I think Agent A is a fun game for a few hours of entertainment.

I actually think Agent A is an excellent game for people who don’t play much or are even new to gaming. The controls are simple, the puzzles are solvable with a bit of thinking, and while the story might be thin, that makes it easy to follow. And since there’s practically no violence (but some humor), I think this game is also well-suited for children.

My experience: I had a good time playing Agent A. Especially since I had just played some mentally “heavier” games before, I enjoyed relaxing with something simple. Like with many indie games, I see it more as a small dessert after a big meal. And in the case of Agent A, it was a tasty dessert.

Technical: I had no technical issues while playing.

Personal rating: 3/5

Fun spy-themed puzzle game with a cool retro style. The puzzles are clever, the controls are easy, and the story keeps you hooked. Some puzzles can be tricky, but it's a great game for anyone who loves a good challenge. Definitely worth playing!

This was an awesome puzzle game! I thought the puzzles were nicely varied in both type and difficulty, with almost none of them feeling too obtuse or difficult to figure out. The art style was also really enjoyable, and I enjoyed the stylized look. The story was super simple, especially for anyone who watches spy movies or reads novels, but I still found it enjoyable despite its simplicity. This game's humor is also right up my alley. Nothing but dad jokes and terrible puns. They are all groan-worthy in the best way. I think this game is absolutely worth it, especially for someone looking to break into puzzle games, and it serves as a really well-rounded introduction to the genre as a whole. Also has a cutie-patootie kitty cat.

Thoroughly enjoyed this point and click mystery game. I'm not the most clever sleuth, so I did get stuck a few times. But I did enjoy the gameplay and the stylized graphics. It kept me working for several sessions. Definitely worth the price. Here's hoping for a sequel.

When the head of MIA is killed by a rival HAVOK agent, it falls to Agent A to avenge the late chief. As he follows the killer's trail, it quickly becomes apparent Agent A's arrival was anticipated. Can he escape with his life while uncovering the truth behind HAVOK's insidious origin and their future plans that threaten to throw the world into turmoil?

Agent A: A puzzle in disguise is a classic point-and-click game, where you explore the luxurious cliffside lair of Agent LaRouge. Collect items and info as you solve the numerous puzzle thrown into your path, with a healthy mix of item collection and problem solving puzzles.

First and foremost, the game is stylish and smooth with a nice plot. The design is an eye-catchingly pop art style that is surprisingly well animated, with objects interacting and locations shifting without any hitching. While there isn't a lot of voice work, the acting is done well with appropriate emotions and lipsync. The puzzle difficulty is probably about 4/10, with a few exceptions on both ends [annoyingly hard to braindead], although I never felt completely lost or disassociated.

I do have two mild complaints. Because of the way the layout is designed, backtracking is a pain, especially since there is a small animation with each movement. This is highlighted in Chapter 4, where you collect blueprint parts to add to the frame at the beginning of the stage to reveal security codes. There are five passwords with 2-3 parts each, and while you can collect multiple parts to insert at once, you will still have to come back 5 times at least. This leads into my second complaint: the length of passwords. Some security codes are like 9-10 numbers, and there is no in-game note taking tool. While you can just take a photo with your phone or jot it down on some IRL paper, it is a mild annoyance when the codes could have been 5-6 digits with nothing lost.

Overall, 8/10 game. Fun puzzles and clean mechanically with an entertaining story.

Starts out great, turns into a slog.

Good game. Will recommend if you're a mystery game lover+ you have trouble solving hard questions. This game has a very comfortable flow that every new clue will guide you to the previously unsolved one. So you need to have good memory to remember where those clues and puzzles are or you will spend a lot of time wandering between the rooms. Overall good experience. If you want to unlock all the achievement (spoil alert) DO NOT FEED THE BIRD TOO SOON.

good game, nice puzzle, kinda bothersome with huge map

Lovvedd it. The puzzles had soo many layers and depth. Do play it in one go coz its 1 big story and the puzzle pieces are connected.

So good I played it on multiple platforms

Round 1: Android playthrough

First came across Agent A browsing the app store on my phone in January 2021. Had a great time during the second COVID lockdown tapping away and fell in love with the mid century spy art style.

My review at the time was "Really fun and exciting game. Good story, daft characters, ideal. Challenging enough that you might want to reach for a walkthrough guide but designed well enough that you can get through every challenge without it if you stick at it. I want more!"

Round 2: Android perfectionist playthrough

There's a bunch of fun achievements that you're not going to come across unless you're super curious (or reading the walkthrough afterwards because you're a perfectionist). Played it again of course!

Round 3: PC

Fast forward to 2025, I come across the game on Steam and I'm like "YES". Couldn't really remember much about it except for it being good and enthusiastically played it again. Just as good the second time around - and I didn't need to much help to get through it this time - got to the end in about 3 hours.

Round 4

Same thing happened again with those achievements! Immediately restarted the game to unlock the rest. Was still fun! I think I'm done now though haha. That said...no spoilers...the ending leaves things open to a sequel I reckon. Really hope that happens!

TLDR

Good - buy it!

Wonderful game ! Very cozy and funny.

It was pretty fun! It was a little tedious to move around but it was still a really good game!

Enjoyed the game a lot, especially when doing all the side quest achievements (I love Onyx). The plot is not much of a "mind-blowing" experience, but for a cute li'l detective game, I had a pretty good time. The puzzles aren't that hard; however, some are "trial-and-error," which can be annoying for others. The only time I got stuck was when my stupid brain didn't think that there's another accessible location where I can get an item I've been missing (dumb).

fun short puzzle game, i like it a lot!.

An absolute BANGER

Very lousy story. Progression of story relies on random weird events.

Completely no logic for many puzzles. One needs to spend time trying over and over rather than have a brain to pass the game.

Very linear story. No Easter Egg. It might be worth to purchase the game with 90% off, but it would be a waste of time to play it.

Fun game with clever puzzles that are not too difficult.
Well created with good humour.

Had an enjoyable time, most puzzles were logical; more often as not, there's clues in-world for the less obvious ones. Observation and memory are the key to progressing quickly through them. The story itself plays up on the classic spy-vs-spy baddies vs the goodies, good for a few chuckles. The zoom forward / step back game mechanic was fine, however it did get a little tedious in Chapter 4 (little too much having to backtrack all the way to the first 'room' to get the next needed clue), but it's a minor complaint.

For the price, it was totally worth it, and left me hoping one day there might be an "Agent B" sequel. If looking for a quick 5-6 hours of entertainment (bit longer if hunt down every achievement), give this one a go (oh, and there's a free demo if still unsure).

A fun little game. Challenging enough to be interesting while easy enough to be relaxing.

this was amazing rip jerry pls make another

I enjoyed the game thoroughly! I was looking for an alternative to Nancy Drew games and stumbled onto this!

This game is super fun. Would've loved to have seen it be a bit longer given the price, but overall I thoroughly enjoyed it (even as the type of person who usually despises the puzzle parts of most games). Highly recommended.

nice fun short puzzle game . i liked it

I liked the plot of the game and the puzzles were often very enjoyable. Got frustrated with the laser puzzle (truly nonsensical to me) and found the movement made me seasick. Recommended for folks who don't have a hard time with first-person game movement and who are better at puzzles than me!

Quite a fun puzzle game with great art and a cool theme

got bored by the game the art is good but everything else is not buy it when the game in sale otherwise don't think of it

Yak&Co made two of my favorite puzzle games, which is saying a lot since they've only had 2 releases!
This game in particular was amazing. The storyline, the plot (albeit predictable) plottwists, the humor in commentary, backtracking and use of such a great artstyle. I loved evert second of it!
Even coming back to get all achievements wasn't a drag, I had fun the second time around, which is rare in these types of games!

I 100% recommend getting this if you like the puzzle, searching, or point and click genres, I sure didn't regret it!

Julien mochte das spiel sehr und ich hab gecarried 7/10 in normalen spielen 9/10 mit der story und 9/10 als puzzle game

great adventure game

recommend! short, fun, puzzle game in that suave ?60s? spy setting. really liked how the puzzles and environment flowed together. I must say that by act 5 the wannabe cutesy, very safe, one liners and rhymes really annoyed the **** out of me.

Very charming and the puzzles are fun but logical. A very enjoyable puzzle game. The animation style looks dated now but it's fine.

Great game! Lots of fun and interesting puzzles. The whole family loved it.

For what this is, it's not bad. It's a click adventure. As far as click adventures go this game is put together decently. With the spy aspect added to it, it's kinda fun. There are definitely a few spots where I got hung up on things and had to really backtrack and search for things, but for the most part I was able to figure things out. There is a ridiculous laser puzzle in Chapter 3 that I had to look up the answer for because the puzzle was very unintuitive.

Rating: 9/10 The game is good for what it is. I haven't beat the game yet but I have docked it 1 point for the ridiculousness of the laser puzzle. Even after looking up the answer I didn't understand how the answer made any sense even with the explanation right in front of me.

Fun game!

Fun
