    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.

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

    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.

    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.

Almost flawless in every regard- puzzles, atmosphere, sound design, levelThe most engrossing and biggest game in the franchise so far. Almost flawless in every regard- puzzles, atmosphere, sound design, level design- every nitpick in what made the Room games so appealing. Yet while the game marvels with its challenging puzzles and interconnection, the plotline fails to answer much- leaving it too mysterious and sadly, off-putting - even with the enormous amount of letters and cutscenes; and while the evolution from one puzzlebox to one room to rooms with interconnected puzzles is definitely fun to see and play around with, it can become infuriating a few times when you move from a room to another only to find it not a part of the current puzzle. While some new mechanics are introduced, it doesn't revolutionize much like the original and becomes somewhat stale later down the line. But even with its flaws, The Room Three remains impressive - a puzzle box to be played around with and solved.… Expand

    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.    … Expand
