Gameplay
This is a third-person perspective tactical arcade. With each level, the player gets to see the floor’s map.
The screen consists of a map, a health bar, the amount of collected money and the timing line, so each level should be finished on time. The map shows the location of every enemy and their routes, so it lets the player choose his path suitable for survival and attacking. The gameplay has both combat and stealth modes. The player can mix those to fight all of the enemies and collect more money. Each point can be used for a character or a weapon upgrade and new weapon purchase. Every level is accompanied by a typical secret-agent-movie type of soundtrack and dialogues between the characters.

Reception
The game is praised for its humor and design. However, at the same time, Agent Awesome is criticized for incomplete settings and expensive weapon improvements.
