Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Big puzzle
Great adventure, you need to be free to play this puzzle.
The graphics can't match the PC version though.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Exile
Arrived when told it would and in good condition. I expect to have great fun playing it.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not a Classic, but still fun.
The first game of the series with a number in the title. Not many people like this, but hey, they did it in Star Wars. The graphics are on par with Riven, in some places they look about the same as Myst: Original. The storyline isn't so great, but it is beliable enough. The acting is good, exectpt for the new Catherine, she's just funny. Many people complain about the contrivance of the puzzles, however they are still designed well execpt for the circut puzzle and balance puzzle. In all, not bad for a game destined to fill up the space between Riven and Myst IV.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Myst, Riven and now Myst III!
Just wanted to mention that the three games listed in the title of this review are by far the BEST three games out there for someone interested in puzzle solving and graphics. My PC is an old one at home so I am currently limited to PS2 as far as games go and have no idea if there will be another game released on PS2 to follow the three listed.

Do not be ashamed about going on-line to find some "helpful-hints" during the Exile adventure (there has to be a better word than that for this but that will do for now).

I wish there were more games like this one out there but I just cannot find any. The Exile game also has options to view DVD style the waythe ideas and graphics were developed. 5 stars, nah, let's go with a 100 star rating. If you want to be entertained and dumbfounded for many, many hours I guarantee you WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 5 plus 1 more star!
There should be more games like this. Games that immerse you into the environment. Seeing these worlds made me want to be there. Beautiful. Who are these designers?! And the ability to interact with the environments really make it even more realistic. If the technology to put you in a virtual reality game ever comes out, a game like this would definitely be a big winner. Imagine to be able to see these awesome worlds and interact in them?! The puzzles aren't as complex as the ones in Riven, but, they are nevertheless, intrigueing. I just don't like the fact that some puzzles require you to write things down. If I was in that world, paper nor pencil may be available to me. So, I would have to rely on intuition and common sense. So, why not tailor the puzzles to fit that. I highly recommend this game and hope that a 4th comes out for the PS2!
