Default Do you want this game to be turned into a full season?

So, do you want it? I would definitely buy it, I loved this game and am looking forward to other pilot episodes!
EDIT: There's a typo on the third option, it should be "and Telltale should focus on better games"

Yes! It was great. I really want to see more of Graham Annable's art style worked into the games.

Actually,I think Nelson should go back to Scoggins. There are 2(maybe 3) unresolved cliffhangers:

!. Who, or what, was in that spacesuit?
2. Where did the Hidden People take Isaac Davners?
3. Call it a hunch, but I think there is something wrong with that other agent back at the FBI. He was acting like a brainwashed Scoggins resident(not wanting to give information, doing puzzles). Could that possibly mean that some Hidden People stowed away with Nelson on his flight home?

I don't want to see Isaac anytime soon (if he's still alive) and I certainly dont want the next game to be about finding him.
What they should do is have a new completely unrelated plot that in the end builds up to an arching story (like telltale did with sam and max)
The Hidden people exist out side of scoggins and there is more in the Grinckle universe then just hidden people.
Also I dont think the FBI agent sounded brain washed he just didnt care about some missing guy as its not the FBI's business (can you blame him)

I mean, if I got to choose between MI and this, then it would be pretty clear that MI would come out victorious. But I mean, if this can be produced w/o it taking a lot of resources from other games, then hell yeah.

Honestly,I don't want to have the whole next episode be about finding him either, but I would like to have that resolved in some way. I would also like to have the spacesuit person come back at the start of every episode, letting us see more and more of him every time. Also, I have to disagree with you on the whole "Hidden People existing outside of Scoggins" thing, because it is mentioned several times in PA that stories about the People help bring in tourists. Even though the agent doesn't have to be brainwashed, the People could still have stowed away with Nelson, for unknown reasons.

I wont necessarily want one, but if one gets made I would get it when it's priced down...

I would like to see them do more with what happend but not directly, I like your idea of having the spaceman apear each episode.

When I said they exist outside of scoggins i was thinking of the Grickle video The hidden people

I really think they should make these into full length games like Prof. Layton that they make every year or so.

I can't really see it being as interesting as an episodic game as it would be as a full game.


I would like more Puzzle Agent though.

I agree. I never expected to love Puzzle Agent as much as I have. I honestly think it is the best Telltale game made to date, even beating out Sam & Max Season 3. I love the atmosphere, the simplicity of the game play and control scheme, the music, the art style, everything...

...and yet I don't want to see this as an episodic series. Part of what makes Puzzle Agent good is that it's a complete game. While it is left open to follow up should they want to continue the story, the case itself is over. Yes, there are a few mysteries left unsolved (and maybe that's for the better), yet I feel that the story wrapped up pretty nicely.

What I would like to see is a new Puzzle Agent game (if there is another one planned) having a release in the middle of another episodic season, just as this first game was released in the middle of S&MS3. I'd also like to see a new case, completely unrelated to the case we've just played.

All in all, I love Puzzle Agent, yet I'd rather have a number of separate games about separate cases than one complete episodic series with an over-arching storyline.

I'm not dying for a full season of Puzzle Agent, but if they decided to make one, I'd probably buy it.

At the very least, there should be a second one.

No it didn't. Hidden People and their goal was ignored, space theme and astronaut was ignored, mass hypnosis via puzzles was ignored, and the list goes on. There were heaps of plot holes that couldn't be ignored in a sequel. There was no closure. It felt like a demo at the end, where you have to wait to see the whole product.

Oh my god yes. I've not even finished it yet and I'm upset that after I beat it I don't got another episode waiting to come out.

I definitely want more!

I was surprised when the game ended so abruptly. Cliffhanger ending, and so many unvisited locations on the map! I thought maybe I'd missed some puzzles, or needed a higher score to access the "real" ending. Guess not.
