Console Creatures: 9 / 10 by David Pietrangelo

Agent 64: Spies Never Die is an impressive retro shooter with plenty of modern touches across the visuals, music, level design, and gameplay. It'll be a great time for anyone who grew up playing late 90's shooters.

Smash Jump: 9 / 10 by Joshua Howard

Agent 64: Spies Never Die is about as close as a perfect game can get. It sets out to make a game that is inspired by N64 shooters and does well with flying colors. There are a handful of frustrations, but that does not invalidate the excellent done with the story, the buckets of content, and the classic multiplayer that does not feel outdated at all. Sometimes old dogs do not need to learn new tricks.

Full Review

SmashPad: 3.75 / 5

Agent 64: Spies Never Die is an almost ill-advised exercise in extremely specific nostalgia, veritable catnip for Millennials like me. One person put forth a worthy spiritual successor to some of the ’90s and early aughts certified sleepover classics, warts and all. It comes highly recommended for those who can still get down with the aesthetics and jank of games from nearly 30 years ago.

  • Solid Gameplay: Users praise the gunplay, controls, and overall gameplay feel, noting that it feels smooth and satisfying.
  • Multiplayer Features: The game includes local split-screen and online multiplayer modes, allowing up to 8 players to compete, which many reviewers found enjoyable.
  • Variety of Content: With 14 missions, co-op campaign options, challenges, and various unlockables, the game offers significant replayability.
  • Artistic Presentation: The retro aesthetic, including low-poly graphics and a CRT filter, is well-received, enhancing the nostalgic feel.

The main cons of the game

  • Short Campaign: The main story can be completed relatively quickly (around 3-5 hours), leading some players to feel that the game is overpriced for the amount of content.
  • Frustrating Progression System: The "Cypher" system requires players to replay missions on higher difficulties to unlock new acts, which many found tedious and detracting from the overall experience.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users

  • Lack of Voice Acting: Users expressed disappointment over the absence of voice acting, which could have added depth to the narrative.

  • Steam Workshop Support: Many users requested modding support and the ability to create custom maps to extend the game's longevity.
