"A masterfully rendered interpetation of Hell, Agony is an artistic accomplishement rivaling the likes of David Lynch. The wonderfully Shakespearean narrative combined with an exploration-driven gameplay makes this game on par with masterpieces like the Legacy of Kain series and Coldsteel the Hedgeheg."
"With its bold and nuanced approach to personal suffering and the temptation of lust, Agony is the kind of game that proves the medium as an artform. A bold artistic achievement, much like Lesiure Suit Larry"
"Demons, ass, titties, gore, it's just what any REAL gamer wants. However, Agony is smarter than that; by being so blunt about the surface value, the game manages to sink deep into heavy themes heavily reminiscent of Planescape: Torment."
"Very rarely did a game with so much brutality leave me with a smile on my face. Despite its gruesomeness, there is a beauty to the game's execution and symbolism. One could say Agony is a dark fairy tale, albeit with much, much more depth... wait that's Darkwood."
High quality dialogue that makes Shakespeare shudder.

I think Hell is simply not a good setting for horror games.
Perhaps if you tried to reinvent Hell. Maybe. Possibly.
Ever played this?
I know it's not about Hell, just thought LS might be interested.
By the way, those reviews in Big Wrangle's post are not real.
