Alpha Protocol's most compelling feature is its dialogue and reputation system, which genuinely shapes the story and your character's relationships. The game's third-person shooting is serviceable, but the real meat lies in how your choices impact missions and the factions you encounter. It's a flawed, janky experience, but the reactivity and freedom to role-play a secret agent leave a lasting impression.

About Alpha Protocol

Details
Loyalty carries a price and no one knows this more than agent Michael Thorton. A talented young agent cast out by his government, Thorton is the only one with the information needed to stop an impending international catastrophe. To do so means he must cut himself off from the very people he is sworn to protect. As players determine how to accomplish different objectives, the decisions made and actions taken in each mission will ultimately transform the type of secret agent Michael Thorton will become. Every choice the player makes as Michael Thorton will carry consequences for his future and the fate of the world.
