The uncensored, adult edition of Madmind Studio’s Agony, released in 2018, has suddenly disappeared from Steam users’ libraries…

Agony is a survival horror where you must escape from hell by finding the Red Goddess. Madmind Studio had planned an 18+ version of this game called Agony Unrated, which was initially cancelled for technical and legal reasons, but eventually showed up on Valve’s digital game store. And now, it’s partially gone. Everyone who bought Agony got the Unrated version for free, so there was no shortage of availability.

The Polish developers explained in an announcement on Steam that Agony and Agony Unrated have been unlinked from each other. “As most of you know, until now, if you bought Agony, you also received a copy of Agony UNRATED in your library. This was always our intended way to do this, and that didn’t change. As some of you are also aware, games with themes similar to ours can often face some difficulties on this platform. Unfortunately, we still don’t have full knowledge on why they were delinked, and we’re unable to link the games again using our tools, so we’re now in contact with Steam support to work out the solution that’ll satisfy everyone” the studio wrote.

According to SteamDB, Agony Unrated slipped away from Agony on February 16. However, the thing is that the Unrated version is still available for purchase on Steam and is available in everyone’s library if you purchased the game that way. The players may be overly hasty in their reactions, as it is not yet known what happened or what caused this.

On the game’s forum, some people are blaming Madmind for this, leaving negative reviews behind. Maybe we should wait for Valve’s reaction because it might be their fault, not the Polish developers’. The game itself was released several years ago, and the uncensored edition has also been available for more than three years. It’s not a new creation, and the Polish developers are not making a killing on it…
