Hidden Agenda (Gaming)

If you liked Until Dawn, would you like Hidden Agenda? Depends on if you have friends.

I’d say this game is pretty worthless if you are going to play solo. The story is so so, and pretty short. The real fun is playing with friends in the competitive mode. Basically, a consensus has to be made on choices (playing with an even number of friends is more interesting since you have to convince someone to switch in case of a tie). But the game asks you questions like who is the most sympathetic, brave, honest, etc, and sometime that person alone will make critical choices.

In the competitive mode, you are given a hidden agenda you are trying to accomplish. This makes things more interesting, because you have to try to sway things to get your way, but not be obvious about it.

The group you play with makes all the difference. Try to get a group who can laugh at the cheesey dialogue and impractical situations.

I really enjoyed it, but it’s not really something you can play more than twice. It takes 2-3 hours to play depending on your group.
