Agent 64 Missions Guide: All 14 Levels

Use this guide to identify all 14 story missions, jump to a complete community-recorded playthrough on the 64 Agent difficulty, and solve the progression questions that repeatedly send players back to search. It now includes verified Tower bomb areas, a practical Complex route, the Moon Hidden Face location, launch-build Cypher gates, and a community par-time reference. It is still not fourteen full step-by-step walkthroughs: where current evidence does not support an exact claim, the page says so.

The latest official build checked here is PC v1057. It fixes the missing texture line in mission 13, softens Security Guard collision in Tower, makes Online Co-op objective syncing more direct, and fixes Gilded Gun visibility in split-screen. Earlier relevant fixes include immediate mission unlocks in v1032, the Temple/Vault pit softlock in v1020, and the co-op debrief work in v1042. Official v1057 notes · Developer announcement archive

Campaign structure at a glance

The released campaign contains 14 missions across four acts. Each mission supports three difficulty modes: Agent, Special Agent, and 64 Agent. Steam achievements separately mark entering Act 1 and unlocking Acts 2, 3, and 4, which confirms the act structure without revealing the mission count inside each act. Official achievement list

The official store describes every mission as a self-contained environment with objectives to complete while fighting guards. Hacking terminals, recovering plans, and freeing hostages are examples. They should not be copied across all 14 missions as if every assignment uses the same list.

Quick answers: missions, walkthroughs, and Cyphers

How many missions are in Agent 64? The release campaign has 14 missions across four acts, with Agent, Special Agent, and 64 Agent versions of each assignment.

Why is the next act still locked? Launch-build community capture shows gates of 4 Cyphers for Act 2, 16 for Act 3, and 32 for Act 4. Those numbers were visually checked in PC v1004, not independently recaptured in v1057, so compare them with the number shown in your current game before planning a long replay session.

Where is the Agent 64 walkthrough? The mission cards below link directly to every chapter in a complete community-recorded walkthrough played on the 64 Agent difficulty. Use those chapters as route footage, while remembering that Agent and Special Agent can have different objectives and accessible areas.

No current first-party page publishes the full set of mission names. The release-order directory below comes from a complete, no-commentary community playthrough on the 64 Agent difficulty; SmashPad’s release review independently names seven of the same locations. That makes the names and order useful community evidence, not an official objective table. Full walkthrough · 64 Agent difficulty · SmashPad review

Mission help for common blockers

These answers target the exact problems that have recently surfaced in search. Tower and Complex are cross-checked against complete release footage; the Moon collectible comes from a community location guide. Difficulty can change the checklist, so always let the objectives shown in your own run override a route written for another mode.

Tower bomb locations (Mission 2)

On the recorded 64 Agent assignment, the in-game briefing says four bombs are spread across these areas:

1. One in the restrooms. Check the toilet-room section after entering the office floors.
2. One in an individual office. Search the enclosed offices rather than the open cubicle space.
3. One in a second individual office. There are two separate office bombs; finding one does not clear both.
4. One on the ground level beside the elevator. Do not leave the tower as soon as you reach the bottom floor.

Equip the pliers and interact with each bomb until the objective count updates. The same checklist also includes opening the ventilation hatch, freeing civilian hostages, reaching the ground floor, and escaping the tower, so “all four bombs defused” is not by itself the end condition. The location wording and tool requirement are visible in the 64 Agent Tower footage. In v1057, the developer also softened Security Guard collision in Tower; older videos may therefore feel slightly tighter around guards than the current build.

Complex walkthrough route

The repeatable route shown in two release runs is: move from the satellite-dish exterior into the facility, work through the lower server rooms, then reach the upstairs control area and use the objective computer. Wait for the checklist confirmation before backtracking; the terminal interaction is the important state change, not simply reaching the central computer. From the technical rooms, follow the red-and-blue-lit corridor toward the helipad exit. If the route seems dead, recheck the lower rooms for a missed key or access interaction before assuming the mission is broken. 64 Agent route at 35:22 · Second release run at 33:45

Moon Hidden Face location

For the Hidden Face in Moon, leave Room 1 into the open area, turn to the right-hand side, and look up into the tree. This is a community-documented collectible location rather than a first-party hint. Moon is mission 13, and v1057 fixes a missing texture line in that mission; the patch note does not say that the collectible itself moved. Community Hidden Face guide

14 missions in release order

Objectives expand as difficulty rises. Every card therefore describes the evidence available—one complete playthrough on the 64 Agent difficulty—rather than copying its briefing text onto Agent or Special Agent. These spoiler-light snapshots name visible environments and route beats but omit story turns, exact item locations, and an “optimal” order. The chapter link opens at the recorded mission start so a player can inspect the assignment and route in context.

What changes with difficulty

Difficulty is part of the mission design. Steam explicitly says that harder settings add objectives and open more areas. The developer’s earlier demo announcements also recommended moving from the easiest mode upward so that each replay could reveal changes in layout and events. The release store is the controlling source for what remains true now. Steam store · Developer announcement archive

The store does not promise that every higher-difficulty run opens a new room, nor does it document an identical number of added objectives per mission. Treat “more objectives and more open areas” as the campaign rule, not a formula.

How Cyphers gate progress

Cyphers are the missing link between completing a mission and opening another act. Three independent launch reviews describe the same broad behavior: a clear awards Cyphers according to difficulty, and later acts ask for a minimum total. Reviewers found that Agent-only clears were not enough to finish unlocking the story, so they returned to earlier missions on Special Agent or above. Shacknews · Checkpoint Gaming · Game Sandwich

Cypher values and act gates

A community guide visually checked the progression screen in PC v1004 and recorded the following values. The broad loop is supported by three launch reviews; the exact numbers are community evidence and have not been independently recaptured in v1057. If your current gate differs, follow the live UI and treat this table as launch-build history.

Community Cypher capture and methodology

1. Clear the available Agent assignmentsLearn each environment and earn the baseline progress attached to those clears.
2. Check the next act gateIf it remains locked, compare the required progression with the Cyphers you have earned.
3. Revisit a known missionSelect Special Agent, reread the changed objectives, and earn the additional difficulty clear.
4. Move upward deliberatelyUse 64 Agent when you understand the space rather than treating it as the default first attempt.

Cyphers should also be kept separate from par times. Cyphers are described by reviewers as act progression; par times are officially tied to optional Paradox unlocks and completion goals.

Before starting a mission

The safest preparation is not a route—it is reading the current assignment closely enough to notice what changed.

These habits are deliberately generic. They help with the interface and the campaign’s rules without pretending that every mission uses a disguise, remote mine, hostage, terminal, or destructible target.

Failure and restart behavior

Two launch reviews describe story missions without mid-level checkpoints or ordinary health refills. Body armor can extend a run, but damage that reaches health is not treated like a resource that automatically resets after the next room. Dying sends the player back to the beginning of the mission in the reviewed build.

That old-school failure model changes how an objective should be approached. A mistake after several completed goals costs the whole attempt, so learning guard placement and keeping armor for later encounters can matter more than pushing forward quickly. This remains orientation rather than optimization: no armor locations or enemy routes are published here.

Checkpoint Gaming reported that its longest missions took roughly eight or nine minutes without a speedrun attempt. Short missions reduce the size of a lost run, but they do not remove the friction. The same reviewer found higher-difficulty memorization and limited recovery frustrating. Shacknews was more comfortable with the compact restart structure but objected to compulsory replay through Cypher gates.

Objective failure is not limited to death. The live achievement list proves that the player can destroy a mission-critical object. It does not establish which objects are critical, how the interface reports every failure, or whether all failed objectives end a mission immediately.

Par times and Paradox unlocks

Par times belong to the optional mastery layer. The official store says that beating par times and other trials unlocks 70+ Paradox modifiers and cheats. Examples include Big Heads, Melee Disarms, Slow Bullet Speeds, and No Reload. The “Speed Demon” achievement confirms a larger goal for beating every par time, but the achievement page does not reveal the individual targets.

Agent 64 par time list

Why is my par time not showing? The game does not present a convenient complete reference in the main menu, so the target can appear to be missing even when the timed challenge exists. The table below comes from a Steam Community guide updated August 24, 2026. It is useful for planning, but it is not an official table and PlayerMemo has not independently completed all 14 targets in v1057. Confirm the target and reward in your current mission or result UI before treating a run as final.

* The community guide displays Castle as 2:40:00; this page normalizes it to the minute:second.millisecond pattern used by the surrounding entries. That normalization is an inference, so verify the live target if precision matters. Steam Community par-time guide

The launch reviews describe some targets as demanding, especially for players who are not interested in speedrunning. That is an assessment, not a universal difficulty rating. A target may become easier once a route is understood or when a particular modifier is available. PlayerMemo reports the community table but does not rank the targets without first-party timed runs.

Contracts and Challenges are different

Contracts remix story missions. The Steam listing says they use different objectives and preset Paradox combinations, and completing them provides additional Paradox unlocks. They reuse campaign environments under special constraints rather than adding another standard difficulty tier.

Challenges are part of Arena. They place players against preset bots with a required score and time. Performance improves the reward, which can include maps, characters, and music. Challenges can be played within the multiplayer side of Agent 64; they are not act gates and should not be confused with Special Agent or 64 Agent objectives.

Mission coverage status

PlayerMemo has not completed a recorded first-party objective audit of all 14 missions. Two community release runs now support the names, order, chapter starts, and targeted route checks. We manually reviewed the Tower objective screen for the four bomb areas, cross-checked the Complex route in both runs, and separated the Moon collectible tip from the mission-route evidence. Official sources confirm the campaign architecture and current v1057 patch state. This is enough for a useful troubleshooting index, but not fourteen complete walkthroughs.

An individual mission becomes publishable when three things are available together: a confirmed release-build name, the objective list for the relevant difficulty, and an original or independently reproducible explanation of a route, item, failure, or unlock problem. Until then, this index stays honest about what it can answer.
