    The controls aren’t perfect and it’s still on the short side, but The Room Three delivers exactly what you’re promised: brooding and beautiful atmosphere with epic-length puzzles to solve.

    While in some ways I can understand people who miss the cozy little puzzle box the first game offered, I think it's truly impressive the way this series keeps taking big steps to shake things up. The Room Three, for better or for worse, is the biggest and most elaborate puzzle box Fireproof has designed yet.

    Lasting anywhere between five and seven hours, The Room Three is well worth the £3.99 asking price. Even as the fifth chapter draws to a climactic end, the game beckons you to its clutches once more with alternate endings to unlock.

    The Room Three expands on what the first two games did and raises the bar for puzzle games in general to a whole other level.

    While some of the new additions aren't perfect, The Room Three is still a brilliant, uniquely tactile experience.

    Despite the lack of innovation, The Room Three it’s still a great game that every puzzle lover should buy. All the charm that makes it unique is still there, but for the next chapter Fireproof Games will have to offer something fresh for this franchise.

    Aspiration is a good thing and The Room franchise has grown into an hours-long, Myst-like game with many puzzles and a fully-formed story to drive it along.

    It feels less like an emulation of a puzzle box and more like a traditional adventure game, but Fireproof Games hasn’t lost touch with what makes this series exciting: a rich atmosphere and a series of clever puzzles.

    This game is fantastic.

    Having played both "The Room" and "The Room: Two", i would say that "The Room: Three" has everything the previous games had, only better and much more improved.

    Graphics & Atmosphere: The atmosphere and the graphics are perfect. Blur, DoF, reflections, high-res textures, fog, lighting, everything is as it should be and even better than before. You can really feel the mystery and enjoy the game with tons of immersion.

    Gameplay & Mechanics : Same as the previous games, very good puzzle solving gameplay and mechanics. Perhaps slightly improved overall. I noticed camera movement has been improved and tweaked as well, which added immersion.

    Levels: I'm impressed with the levels of The Room Three. First of all, all the levels are sort of connected with the main area, which felt really good. Previous games felt like playing levels in random locations. The duration of each level (chapter) is higher, with more puzzles and more variety overall. Excellent level design, with attention to detail.

    Puzzles: I loved the added variety of puzzles in this game. Logic, Mathematics, Physics, Geometry, Chain Puzzles and much much more. There's is a little bit of everything. Personally i didn't use any hints, and i think you shouldn't use either to *really* enjoy the game. Still, i realized that the puzzle difficulty is challenging and perfect. Meaning, not too easy to make you bored, but not extremely hard to frustrate you either. Puzzle difficulty is where it should be, and i loved it.

    Music: The game has mainly ambient sounds as background music, and a few clips during some scenes. I was expecting a bit more in this area. But that's just a preference. Ambient sounds work just fine for these type of games.

    Story:: The story telling isn't great, but not terrible either. It's slightly improved over last Room games. At the
    story makes a little bit more sense now. Reading letters, notes etc does help, but still, there is something missing. I felt the game needed a bit more focus in story telling, as well as some more information on what's going on. I loved the idea of alternative endings though, since the player's contribution to the game pays off.

    Overall, a fantastic game, with a good amount of improvements over the previous ones.
    A big "Thank you !!" to the developers for that beautiful game. Definitely recommended.    … Full Review »
