   I must praise this game despite the clunky mobile controls and underwhelming graphics.

The player is given many options that aren't always readily apparent which is best course to match the ultimate ending you may be trying to achieve. The diverging stories seem to be way more numerous than Until Dawn. Some story lines feel more fleshed out than others and some jumps from scene to scene feel more or less natural than a full price game should feel which sometimes feel as characters make radical jumps in logic that won't be clear till a 2nd or 3rd play but with 2 plays as of this review their are radically different directions the story may go. This is a highly entertaining narrative while not the most original plot... I have to question why the devs didn't make this a full length game as it would have been labeled best of the year however the short length is sure to keep this title from getting the AAA attention it deserves.… Expand

   Really enjoyed playing through with other people. That's the key, you need other people to enjoy it to the fullest. It's innovative. The storyReally enjoyed playing through with other people. That's the key, you need other people to enjoy it to the fullest. It's innovative. The story kept us all guessing until the end. Sure, it's terrible compared to a TV show or movie in terms of pacing, plotlines, plotholes and a rushed ending, but the interactivity pulls you along.… Expand

   Hidden Agenda is essentially a scaled back version of Until Dawn. Though the game runs a bit short at around 2 hours (as little as 45 minutesHidden Agenda is essentially a scaled back version of Until Dawn. Though the game runs a bit short at around 2 hours (as little as 45 minutes if you really mess up), it makes up for that with far more endings and alternate scenes than it's predecessor. Basically, they took out the needless walking, removed all except for the most important choices and streamlined the interface (although I marked it down from an 8 to a 7 because of the lack of DualShock4 support). Overall, it is a fun, if sometimes corny, crime drama That will keep you entertained for at least 3 or 4 playthroughs, even more if you play it with friends to see what kind of outcome they get. 7/10
   
   Pros:
   -Decent Graphics
   -Better Face Animations
   -Story Doesn't Drag
   -Lots Of Alternate Scenes
   -Multiple Endings (Unlike Until Dawn)
   
   Cons:
   -Playlink
   -Game Sometimes Changed or Ignored My Choices
   -A Few Of The Endings Are Just Variations of the Other 3 Endings
   -One of the Endings Is Rather Abrupt… Expand

   Intriguing game that makes a huge mistake
   Hidden Agenda is a playlink game from the team that made until dawn...
   This time instead of the butterfly affect, the story focuses on the ripple effect...
   As a playlink game you can only play this game using a smartphone
   There’s a solo story mode and a competitive mode that can be played with up to 6 players…
   The app is a pretty hefty download, over 200mb, but I had no issue using it and it connects to your PlayStation instantly..
   This is a narrative focused choice based game... my initial play through took me an hr. and a half...
   Playing with others and making decisions is what adds to this games fun and length…
   As in competitive mode ever player has their own hidden agendas and end game agendas…
   having your agenda completed in the story will get you more points..
   You’re also awarded points for finding clues and guessing who’s agenda is who’s…
   finding clues will give you take overs... you can use these take overs to stop other players from making a choice in a certain situation…
   This sets up for an intriguing party game of deception and manipulation
   Playing solo though..
   Supermassive games does a great job at telling the story of this mysterious trapper killer
   You play as both a detective and district attorney trying to get to the bottom of who this killer is…
   to clear the name of the current suspect before he’s executed, or maybe even prove his guilt
   the story is full of twists and turns
   I failed to solve the case in my story and I was so ready to start a fresh play through and get to the bottom of this case…
   And then at the end of the credits...
   The game reveals the killer…
   Completely killing any urge I had to replay this game…
   The fun is not knowing who the killer is...
   There’s perfect party potential to have a group fail and want to hop back in for another 2 hours to get it right….
   Robbing players of this feeling by just giving them the answer kills this game and its potential…
   Hidden Agenda kept my attention...
   And I appreciate the competitive nature of bluffing your way to the top like a game of poker…
   But this game fumbles big time at the end
   I give Hidden Agenda
   a 7/10… Expand

   -$20 game in which you make choices and get different endings based on that. Only 1 save slot; each playthrough lasts 2-3 hours. Endings are varied and complex, accounts many choices.

   So here's playlink. And Supermassive thought dragging our cursor would be a nice idea. They didnt have enough iq to imitate the knowledge is power voting system.
   Plot is a mess, you have many difficulties following it and fully understanding it. Missions against your friends are just a chore, no interest or understanding.
   Anyway, I tried many times to play the game. Every member of my friends was dissatisfied every time we gathered to play.… Expand
