I am an actor and a writer. I act quite a bit on stage, a little bit on tv and never on tuesdays. I have had some of my writing published and have written for TV and stage. I have been playing games since they begun and don't seem to be getting any better.

Secret Agent: Cold War Espionage Review

Secret Agent: Cold War Espionage is not going to win the hearts of all, mostly because of some of the gameplay elements, but when you consider the price, it's worth a punt. In fact, like the inspirations, Secret Agent: Cold War Espionage might well become a bit of a cult classic.
