Thank you, flotsam. I've been looking forward to your review and it seems to align with everything else I've read. Such a disappointment for all of us.

Thank you for the review, flotsam [ And thank you, too, Jenny100 ] I was sorely disappointed with the second game in the series and now, having seen all the comments here at Gameboomers and read your review, I know I would be even more disappointed with this third offering. I will not be making a purchase

I don't like the thought of no manual saves especially if there are so many bugs, but the worst part for me is the cliffhanger ending. Still, if/when the price comes down, I do plan to buy and play the game. At least I know what I'm getting into. Don't know about the end as I am still some way away from finishing. Otherwise agree. They do need to allow manual saves. Otherwise I think point and click has significantly improved things for those playing on a PC, like me.

Thanks for the review flotsam and Jenny. I have not personally played the game yet, but I've watched a full let's play on YouTube. The player was very entertaining, and I think he liked the story overall for the most part (with the exception of the ending), though he did not enjoy the game as a whole. Maybe it's because I was only watching and not struggling with the controls myself, but I enjoyed the game well enough. It was not nearly on the level of the first two games. I liken it to Lost Horizon 2 in many ways - not on par with its predecessor(s) but an okay experience. I do intend to get it and play it myself eventually, but not until the price comes down considerably, by which time I will have forgotten most of the puzzle solutions anyway. I find it overpriced for what it is, but I do appreciate that some effort has been made to fix the controls.

I watched the videos with venus. I liked the game. Not as much as the first two, but it wasn't that bad.
