Hidden Agenda is a fun game. The story is a little generic and predictable, but boundaries are being explored in the tech and mechanisms so I'm not sure that's too much of an issue. There are moments of tension and it was fun with a group of six. The mechanisms however fall short of the mark. The decisions aren't always clear and often seem inconsequential. There's rarely anything to discuss as you can't really guess the outcome. The takeover cards were used very rarely by our group on either playthrough. The hidden agendas are the most broken aspect though as it's almost impossible to influence people towards your agenda if there's either very little to discuss or very little to indicate how you would go about it. It just doesn't quite work out. The mechanism is solid, but the writing doesn't exploit it.

Voice acting was great, for a video game. Animation was mostly very good. Sound and (limited) score was excellent. Controls through the app we found smooth, though some of the rapid responses were a little too tricky. Branching paths were limited and too unpredictable, and often didn't ripple out too much with a couple of great exceptions.

Overall, we had a good five hours of fun play and having to start from the beginning without chapters (cf Detroit) wasn't much of a drag on the second playthrough. A decent game. I want more like this.
