What Is It?
Our hero, Professor Hunt, is on a mission to find mysterious lost board games and mark his path with a strange stone to show the way for others. The quest for the truth will lead players to surprising discoveries, challenging puzzles and amazing characters. In three thrilling episodes, the quest for Agon takes players from London ´s British Museum, north to the Polar Regions and south to Madagascar.
What We Thought
Agon is one of the cleverest and exiting adventure videogames I have ever played. Exploring the Museum building in search of clues and hints begins the game and foreshadows the excitement of the coming adventure. Players must “borrow” keys from a sleeping guard, comb through old books for clues, and translate messages from Morse code. The 3-D graphics in this game are amazing. It was a lot of fun for my 10-year-old daughter and me to work together to unfold the clues and link them in order to get to the next level.
Why They’ll Want It
Agon is a great game to play together with your children, as you help each other solve the series of mysteries. Players will need to take notes, write down key combinations, and keep track of some important clues. The more you progress, more you will be willing to play. Supreme graphics and sound effects will take players to different parts of the world and make them feel the thrill of adventure. Even though my daughter doesn’t speak English and lives an ocean away, with my guidance she is still able to play and progress to the next exciting level. — Alex Sormaz and Alison Marek, 12/11/06
