Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Good concept. But the end turn management of each... individual... freaking operative REALLY breaks my focus on the game. If there was a single menu for each major event.... "New spies detected", "Lost spies", "How your spies feel" then it…”
“Until they fix the interface, this game is not playable. It's like the images and templates are all formatted for 4:3, the text for 16:9.”
