    Bug? Where? Everywhere.
    Camera? Yes, it is here. To watch absolutely unprecedented angles.
    Story? Just like in porn movie. Maybe smart porn movie.
    The worst Syberia game? Sure, it's a game called Syberia, but it has nothing to do with the series.

    Not even close to "gold standard" of Syberia 1-2 quality. Worst adventure experience ever. Laggy as hell, buggy as hell, boring story, bad characters. Level of graphics and sound from 2000s. One of the biggest fails in games industry this year.

    Read the PC gamer review, this game is worse than that. Horrifically buggy, ugly graphics which are not optimised.
    The story and setting for the game is really unimaginative and boring .You start in an ugly empty town which has just a few locations to visit. The Youkols are retards which are annoying with horrible dialogue, they may as well be a tribe of jarjar binks.

    The puzzles are not fun and to make it worse they usually have their own set of horrible controls and on top of they are timed, you might know how to solve the puzzles but end up getting annoyed at the horrible controls. Some puzzles are just trial and error and there is a few puzzles which make absolutely no sense (unlocking a certain door), I googled so see if this was a known way to open a door and there was 0 results for opening a door in the way the game suggested.
    There are an insane amount of game breaking bugs (even with the update) that requires you to restart the game to fix a puzzle/screen, some screens load without half the assets and you walk around an invisible maze of where the stairs and platforms should be.

    The game series should have been handed over to Telltale, at least they know how to make a 3D puzzle games!    … Expand

    Это самая ужасная игра, которую я проходил. Обычно, если игра трешняк, я просто скипаю ее и о какой-то оценке речи не идет. Но эта игра на первый взгляд не выглядела плохой - вполне себе неплохая завязка сюжета, характерные персонажи. А на деле - визуал из 2010, сюжет уровня фанфика, написаннным второклассником, максимально кривое управление и с клавомыши, и с геймпада, местами плохоЭто самая ужасная игра, которую я проходил.

Ко всему этому игра переполнена багами - исчезающий курсор, исчезающие метки на юзабельные объекты, застревание персонажа. Финал достоин того, чтоб написать о нем подробней. Игра явно задумывалась длиннее, но по какой-то причине авторы решили обрубить ее и выпустить в таком виде - без финала. Поэтому это единственная игра, которой я честно могу поставить ноль.… Expand

    It's hard to believe, but there's no possibility in this game to save whenever you want.
    So, MAYBE, but just MAYBE, in a graphic adventure game, you could be stuck in some point.
    And well, you give up, you can't go further. Maybe tomorrow will be better. So, tomorrow, just do again some parts you have just done several times, and MAYBE you won't find your path.

    I loved the previous two games and recently replayed them before diving into the sequel and I have to say I was deeply disappointed. The story is bland and lacks the mysteriousness and magic of the previous games. A lot of things in the story is really stupid and illogical. The cheesy villain with an eyepatch was just a cherry on the top.

The story is bland and lacks the mysteriousness and magic of the previous games. A lot of things in the story is really stupid and illogical. The cheesy villain with an eyepatch was just a cherry on the top. But what is the worst about this game is the technical design. It's still buggy and glitchy in 2021, the controls and camera are absolutely horrid - I ended up using gamepad as using a mouse was infuriating and my cursor was disappearing very often. When I got stuck in the game it was usually because I didn't find an item hidden in some corner impossible to see without the right angle of the terrible camera. Lip sync and animation of some characters looks very outdated and weird. Another thing that bothered me was the voice over of majority of characters. Everyone in Russia speaks perfect American accent and the voices usually don't match the age and look of the characters. Kate's voice over is from the original game and is still perfect. The puzzles were decent and the overall difficulty seemed to match previous games. Graphic design is really nice and it followed the strangely beautiful style of places which could have been find in the previous Syberia games. Soundtrack is probably the best part of this game. Overall I would not recommend this game to anyone as it was more painful than enjoyable.… Expand

    It's definitely not Syberia, it's a different game, with different plots which refers only to the plots of the sequel and doesnt continue them. If anyone wants to taste Syberia again, I suggest to play again in Siberia 1 and 2

    Curiosity got me into this game. The heroine is incredibly attractive. And that's where it ended for me. Buggy. Nonsensical object finding. Terrible automatic game save feature that does not permit loading an earlier game when the game malfunctioned on a bug that did not permit proceeding nor loading and earlier save. For goodness sakes. What? Silly characters. Childish story line.Curiosity got me into this game. The heroine is incredibly attractive. And that's where it ended for me. Buggy. Nonsensical object finding.

What? Silly characters. Childish story line. Absolutely gut churning frustration with mouse-keyboard controls and 3rd person graphics. Slow movement. Washed out shading. It came off my pc really fast after I got stuck by the bug. Awful and I have been a gamer since 1988...… Expand

    Technically this game is soooo bad, it should never be released. Mouse+keyboard controls is a joke. Graphic is so outdated, moving to full 3d made it even worse. Laggy on GTX1080, no widescreen support. Plot and characters are childish, don't even compare to previous installments.
    Don't waste money on this thing. That's not Syberia.

    An average story with a terrible gameplay. Billions of bugs and things that keeps you away from any satisfaction. There is no smart puzzles. Just wasting player's time with unreasonable object finding adventure. Very very boring.

    The game has serius optimization problems, the controls are nasty, Kate's movement is very slow, graphics are not very nice. The game does not support widescreen monitors, the highest resolution is 2560x1440, and the graphics settings do not have many options. Often there is lag between speeches and person's facial expressions. I am very dissaopointed.

    I love Syberia series, because it was my starting point to adventure genre. Well, to be honest I don't play this game for long time, because I know that this game is bad, buut I didn't expect sooo bad experience in every aspect.

    Visual (4/10) Graphics is average, at least we have new Kate and Oscar models, but locations looks really terrible. It feels that everything except Kate and    I love Syberia series, because it was my starting point to adventure genre.

    Visual (4/10) Graphics is average, at least we have new Kate and Oscar models, but locations looks really terrible. It feels that everything except Kate and Oscar just bad copy paste dev models, that should be replaced. I liked only one location - park in Baranour, it reminds me set of locations from first Syberia.
    Music is also average, not so bad, but we listen only 1-2 similar songs and ambient theme all game, so for me it feels annoying.
    Interface - it was pain in my "back" all the time. All game time I spend just to point proper way to location. At the Olimpia level I even restart game several time because I get to dead end and don't understand how I should point Kate way out. Even more if you can handle with your way - you will face with lots of bugs with bag and interaction circles.

    Gameplay (5/10) Gameplay is awfull - locations are badly designed. You can run through several just empty screens for nothing, almost everything is badly scripting - for example in latest location on the bridge you need to speak on ALL themes with Kurk, before custom oficer will came. On the other hand I think some puzzles are really fun to solve, especially last one and puzzle with mirrors. Adding more mouse controls to open smth or turn is very controversal I also don't like this part very much because of pure in game realization.

    Story (2/10) One point for Kate and another one for Oscar. Story is ridiculus, with lots of confusing moments, so if you like Syberia, you should be prepared that story was written by 12 year old teen as fandom.

    All in all, instead of great adventure as Syberia was originaly, you just play with some puzzles and saw Kate and Oscar one more time, just to prepare yourself befor final Syberia chapter.    … Expand

    Horribly broken to the point of being unplayable. Story and characters have nothing to do with previous games. Worst point and click I ever played.
    Just play Syberia 1&2 and avoid the rest!

    I'm sorry that Syberia got to the end like this, and it's probably my last memory of this game. Unfortunately, this Kate's adventure is not worth playing, even if it was in a discount. [Issue#275]

    Somewhere under all that technical and gameplay-related mess you can catch a glimpse of good old Syberia, but overall the game is so poor that as a fan of the series it made me want to hurt myself. [06/2017, p.52]
