    This game is very enjoyable, even when getting the platinum. The story is basic, but they tell it nicely for a video game.

While in the mean time the classic villain Dr nefarious from the older games makes a return and is more wretched than before.It gave a sense of relief that an older character to maintain his relevance in the ratchet and clank story.

    The decision to separate Clank and Ratchet seemed off, disrupting the dynamic I love between them like when they would always give funny quips to each other. The Clank puzzles unfortunately became a tedious aspect, lacking innovation and becoming repetitive over time. On the positive side, the weapon customization feature added a refreshing layer to gameplay, allowing for a more tailored experience. I was relieved to find that the game retained the tournaments and other elements that harkened back to the older games, living up to the franchise's reputation for action-packed fun."    … Expand

    Same gameplay, new story. More jokes and many new little gadgets make the new part of this series as enjoyable as the older ones. Insomniac Games build on their qualities and do well so.

    This is the last part in the trilogy and has a few new gameplay possibilities. You can use the great new Hooverboots, explore space with your spaceship and you need to find Clank. A great adventure and a truly worthy closing of the trilogy.

    It's not a difficult game, but with bolts, Zoni, Skill Points, holoplans, Constructo Mods, space missions, Trophies and Challenge Mode, there's an abundance of gameplay. It's a robust single player experience, and I particularly love that Insomniac has kept their signature Skill Points, with their own quirky requirements, separate from Trophies.
