    If you've never played Lost in Blue 3 or any game like it, you ought to give it a try.
  2. If you played a previous Lost in Blue and just couldn’t get enough, this will certainly satisfy your craving. If you weren’t too into the last one, this entry is basically more of the same (and even a near-remake in most respects) with a few extra features thrown in, so you won’t be finding some revolutionary new direction for the series.

    Though Lost in Blue 3 will probably never be anyone's first pick for their ideal "desert island game," it manages to be more enjoyable than the sum of its repetitious parts.

    Everything is a struggle in Lost in Blue 3. [Apr 2008, p.90]
  5. 55
    There are two parts to Lost in Blue 3: the parts that are the same and thus boring, and the parts that are different and thus overly tedious.
  6. You have to look after several "lucky" survivors who seem incapable of taking care of themselves. This nagging flaw, combined with dreary island exploration and only a handful of acceptable mini-games, results in a loss of interest and fun.

    I hadn't played the other Lost in Blue games, but did enjoy this one enough to see it through. But after I had finished to the end withI hadn't played the other Lost in Blue games, but did enjoy this one enough to see it through. But after I had finished to the end with the first character I lost interest in trying to play with the other three to see their story lines. Maybe in a few more months I will pick it up again and try another character. Expand

    The game was okay, but I found the game style repeated from the first 2.
