Agent Alona is an RPG Maker Xp game that follows the tale of Alona, a secret government agent who goes to Japan to find some drugs that are potent and stop their production/sale.
Story
For a game about a spy, the game is very light on actual story details. In fact most things are left pretty vague, and I’m sure that was done due to bad writing and not on purpose. Anyway Alona busts a drug factory with a lower ranked agent right at the start and they find two locations where the drug had been shipped. One is in a city in the US, where Superheroine Rachel takes place connecting the two stories as Rachel takes care of the drug there, while the other location is in Tokyo,Japan. Specifically a school in Japan.
Alona is sent to this school undercover and immediately has to deal with the perverted and corrupt principal. She deals with him by letting him do whatever he wants, such as the very odd demand that all teachers have to wear white underwear or lose their jobs.The reason I point out the principal is that his situation is kind of a running theme. Alona in her attempts to not lose her fake job as a teacher gets sexually attacked in all sorts of ways and she just kind of lets it happen. She asks nobody if what she is going is normal and at no point really tries to defend herself from whoever is attacking her. This stays true the entire game.
Anyway, at some point during the school chapter you find some drugs, and a secret base that leads Alona to some company where she goes undercover again as an employee and yet again deals with a lot of sexual situations. Here you find whatever it is Alona is actually looking for and the game ends properly here. And at some point in this you will probably bad end since the game has some kinda strict requirements that make game overs easy to come by.
The game is something of a mess plot wise. A lot of the time you are just wandering from pseudo minigame to hscene with no real direction until the next clue pops up. The actual story itself also holds no weight since not only is there no human in the world I give a damn about since almost everyone is a creep, a lot of detail is just missing. It feels like you are going through the motions instead of doing anything meaningful and in the end, Survivor Sarah happens so the drug got out anyway and created zombies making Rachel and Alona’s stories pointless. And the whole Agent premise feels wasted, as you don’t feel like an agent with skills and knowledge and connections, but more like a beginner spy who has no idea what they are doing.
Gameplay
This is probably where my biggest issues lie in this game. Combat wise the game is whatever. It somehow takes elements from both the creator’s previous games and makes them boring and worthless since fights almost never happen. There are areas where you will fight a lot, but most the game is as I said above, walking from psuedo minigames to hscenes on a makeshift timer. You get a limited amount of actions per day, and if one of your stats gets to high the game will just end on the next day. The stat that does that goes up with anything you do in wherever Alona is working, so you have to purposely do less things per day in order for some events to play out as they only happen once per day.
The thing that really bugs me about this game is caused mostly by a lack of any skip function. On any rerun of the game you start at the very beginning and it takes about 10 minutes of hammering the confirm button to get to the school section and then an hour or two to get to the company part by ignoring as much content as possible. Also, almost every scene in the school has 2-3 variations that have to be unlocked separately that depend on underwear color. And if you wear black you get an extra scene per day of the principal torturing Alona, which is how you get the third variation on the fourth day, no underwear. And the principal himself is a timer since if you finish his events by wearing black everyday you will get his ending. What I’m trying to say is that as a completionist this game is horrible, and for a regular player there is nothing game wise to really keep you invested other then more porn.
H Content and other stuff
Art wise the game is entirely RPG Maker standard. Alona is the only unique sprite, and the cg art is done using the same program as the other games this game has made, which means sometimes Alona’s face is the stuff of nightmares. One positive thing I can say is this game has the best English of this person’s games, though it still reads really badly. Oh, and all the other character’s in scenes(including the girls, oddly enough) are just dark shadows, sometimes with a dick. Game is unvoiced.
As for actual content, the game has a wide variety of darker stuff and some really weird stuff as well. You have blackmail, coercion, rape, torture, scat, pissing, and a few odd lesbian things plus a few more normal scenes. The weird stuff comes from what the kids in the school do to Alona. Instead of raping her or using her, they do weird things to her like put her on a basketball hoop and throw balls at her. Or have her hold boards with both her hands and feet, while naked, and have people break the boards onto her. Its all shaming stuff but done in some weird ways.
Verdict and Save
This game is bad. Its actually worse then the other two games by this guy and not just because I’m a completionist and the style of scene unlocking pisses me off. No, the problem is how lacking in RPG/game this is. It feels more like a gallery then a game with scenes incrementing every time you visit, which is part of my problem. In this game Alona doesn’t really move or advance a story except when changing buildings. Compared to Rachel where you had full control of your day or Sarah where the game had an actual structure of events, Alona just feels empty. Having scenes building off of each other is actually a big part of this in that more time is spent on a single situation instead of on an adventure or a mission or a plot, which means the total time spent doing one thing that doesn’t mean anything to the goal goes up. I guess what I mean to say is that a majority of what Alona does is pointless and filler feeling, while Rachel and Sarah had reasons for their porn but still had things other then porn in them which led to goals for the player. Alona feels worthless, Sarah and Rachel felt like they were actively doing something.
Other then for the odd fetish in the game there is no reason to play the game. In fact you can probably piece the entire story together from just the endings and the h scenes, making the actual game the worst part of the entire experience. If Alona moved faster or you could skip previously seen scenes in some way, it would still be bad but playable. As it is the game is junk.
//Note text skip has been added, still don’t think the game is good.
Save contains all scenes and Alona at max level.
