  This little game is a gem! A real diamond in the rough. Even just for the 'endless' mode alone. The sound design is something to behold. I love a game that is set in that whole 'retro-noire' genre; and enough variety in the gameplay to keep you interested. It actually reminds me a little of Fallout Shelter in some ways; so just imagine that, but with spy-game elements. You get to build the 'rooms' within the safe house that you want, and you could be tasked with doing anything from shift-to-shift such as building a bomb, to accepting (or rejecting) a load of cargo into the loading dock. There is some element of 'story' to it and you can even send operatives (spys and spec-ops soldiers) out into the field to do missions and they may fail/pass depending on their skills and the mission difficulty. There's something about just turning off the music in this game listening to the ambient environmental effects. Not enough games can get sound design into the ballpark I feel; this game definitely does. Gets a recommended from me! P.S. The camera really isn't as bad as others make it out to be. Some the typos on the other hand...😅

  The safe house is way too slow and boring. During the period where you are earning money you have to repeat the same task time after time which just becomes boring right away. The infirmary is made way too complicated as one can not see which medecin helps for what, which should have next to the medecin itself and not the secret book, which means one how to use longer time than nessecary on a boring task. Bug report: The front door code system does not work probably. When one spy got in, I lost money because I used a code word in the right colunm, after the second respond. So I thought the right colunm didn't count towards the spy. But when another spy showed up, I lost money because I did not use a code word from the second colunm.

  The game was 100% better looking in the greenlight trailer. It's downright hideous to look at. The original direction had a much more cellshaded, stylized look and now all the character portraits look like they came out of google paint. Despite the game looking quiet ugly, it somehow drops in framerate constantly. The controls are awkward to handle, you have to double click everything including opions in the options menu. The camera to view your base is also is way to slow, even at max setting. The game also demands that you have pin point accuracy when pressing buttons, and if your not pixel perfect it'll tell ya to f**k off. Speaking of settings, the game lacks any sort of real opions like lighting effects and doesn't even provide a windowed mode. The story was really what I was hoping to be it's saving grace, but it immediantly failed to intrest me. It's relying on the typical "Poor, unstable Middle Eastern/African nation being invaded/protected by big daddy USA". Along with terrible character portraits I couldn't stand to look at the game for more than a half hour. It really is a shame, I had been wait for this game for a year, it promised to be close to Papers Please which is a fantastic game with a sterotypical communist russia setting, but it's dry humor, random events, and the thought of the morality of your actions helps keep it interesting. What Safe House failed to realize was that it wasn't the busy work that kept people intrigued with the game, but everything connected to the busy work. A foundation to build many great elements on, while Safe House only has the foundation.

  I so wanted this game to be good.... Yet it's essentially unplayable. Even if the interface, (which lags like a turbo engine from the 70's), was fixed, what you're left with is an inane set of pointless and boring mini-games. Scroll, click, then match some letters or decode a message using an alphabet-shift (you need to write down) and you get some money. But why?! Why am I doing this simple and boring task?! You get no information from them, no advancement in the story...just some money to buy another room so you can play a different version of the same mini-game. I've had head colds that were more fun. This is supposed to be a strategy spy game...so where is the strategy? When do I get to make decisions, plan an operation, decide if someone is lying to me or not? If the answer is after several hours of 3rd grade letter puzzles, you've failed Intro to Game Design on day one. As a huge le Carre fan, I was looking forward to a cerebral espionage game that wasn't just another shooter in a tuxedo. Instead this game is nether; it's more Sudoko but less sexy and thrilling. DO NOT BUY, stick to Spy Party.
