Agents of Mayhem Reviews
Agents of Mayhem is an uninteresting experience that has been offered in far better ways throughout the history of open-world shooters. That's not to say that it's bad - in fact, for a mediocre game, it can certainly be a fun distraction for a couple of hours. Unfortunately, its potential was thrown from a window, and what we got here is a repetitive shoot-fest that's enjoyable only when there isn't something better to play.
Playing through Agents of Mayhem is a mixed bag, with great ideas thrown out the window in favor of explosions, and the creative messages lost in the process. The game ends up feeling unfinished.
Agents of Mayhem can be a fun experience if you ignore some of the repetition it carries and embrace its silliness.
You'll definitely want to return to Agents of Mayhem again and again. Games' shortcomings will become irrelevant as soon as you start a new mission, pick your favorite agents from the diverse roster and have a lot of fun.

Agents of Mayhem is a decent game. It is specifically goof for those who doesn't want to take the game serious, and doesn't want to get punished whenever they do anything. But if you want a game that test your skills and makes you think while playing, then it is not for you. The repetitive missions and the boring city really makes you stop enjoying the game after playing only couple missions

Agents of Mayhem is by no means a bad game, but it lacks ambition. That's particularly damning since it spawns from a franchise that rarely held back. If you want to blow up robots, collect some items, and hear amusing humor, then Agents of Mayhem fits the bill. If you're looking for something as off-the-wall as the Saint's Row franchise at its best, this is not it. There are enough glimmers of greatness and individually well-executed moments that it can be easy to forgive the bland filler. If you can't get past that, though, then there's not enough meaty content here to make it a satisfying experience.
Volition has done something great with Agents of Mayhem. It does a good job at being a spin-off that can stand on its own, providing players with a lot of content and a lot of variety to keep them busy for a long time. Fans of open world games and/or the Saints Row series definitely need to play this game.
Video games were created as a medium of entertainment, and you don't get much more entertaining than Agents of Mayhem.
It may not consistently live up to the standards of Volition's recent pedigree, but Agents of Mayhem's cackling supervillains, destructive vigilantism and satisfying combat make for a jolly good open-world adventure nonetheless.
If you're one of those who love apocalyptic environment and or do not consider themselves the usual fan of mighty heroes, then Agents of Mayhem is for you and thats because of its challenging gameplay done in groups that would make you sit and play for hours, but don't forget that the campaign, in terms of storyline, is not as rich as its gameplay and this would definitely make the players unhappy. True that we can't ignore the charmful city of Seoul, being in the middle of a chaotic war, but the frame reductions we encountered in the PS4 version of the game really did hurt our joy, we hope that the current issues will be solved as the developers launch the first day updates so that more and more enthusiasts would play Agents of Mayhem.

If you're looking for something to keep you busy and entertained, Agents of Mayhem brings it in spades. However, if you get bored of doing the same things over and over again, you might not get what you want from it.
Fundamentally Agents of Mayhem is a fun game, but Volition's effort to achieve great ambitions at the shadow of Saints Row cut off the the potential to do more. Its roster of characters poses a charming personality and the perspective it gives us of Seoul looks amazing, but beyond the meticulous options in personalization and the fluid combat gameplay, there is a lack of cohesion and too much repetitiveness.

I enjoyed a huge number of Missions in Agents of mayhem not because of the content of the game itself but because of the great diversity in the design of the characters and the existence of 14 personalities, so I was impressed with the Futuristic design of Seoul City and the many customizations options for heroes and their abilities, but the game is very repetitive and presenting similar content for over 30 hours, and a silly story of naive events as if you are watching a vulgar TV series.

With tight controls, hilarious dialogue, and great gameplay mechanics Agents of Mayhem is the collection addition to fans of the genre or the Saints Row franchise.
Agents of Mayhem manages to make its own identity while still retaining the spirit of the series that inspired it. With a visually pleasing art direction, pleasantly entertaining combat and a plot that easily ate up thirty hours of my time, it's the kind of experience that is perfect for turning your brain off. There's an art to making video game junkfood like this and Volition haven't lost their touch yet.
Agents of Mayhem is an exaggerated, fun and challenging game. The combat is simple and frenetic, and the possibility to combine different agents with a variety of skills and styles makes the game fun to play. This also shows that Volition continues getting better without losing its sense of humor and characteristic style, nor the courage to make something new. The only problems are its technical issues and the small variety of missions.

The new game from Volition is a good action-adventure that's really enjoyable thanks to its twelve characters and funny actions. It is also full of incredible activities, but it's really a shame that there is no multiplayer mode to enjoy its colorful open-world along with your friends.

Agents Of Mayhem is not a game that I would personally recommend to purchase right away, but there's enough good in the game that it's certainly worth keeping your eyes on when it goes down in price in the future.
Agents of Mayhem does exactly what it says on the tin. It's chaotic. The cast of characters are memorable and fun as hell to play. The humor is well delivered and not forced. It's just a shame more imagination wasn't put into the objective-based gameplay at its core.
Agents of Mayhem may not be the best open world action game but it is full of awesome gameplay, satisfying exploration, and diverse characters that help keep the experience fresh.
