The House of Da Vinci 3

If it isn’t the annoying clues that won’t leave the screen once you activate them, it’s the fact that there is no explanation of what to press or what to twirl or what to push, for a game that’s supposed to be an adventure becomes a nightmare. This game is missing the mark, take games like Myst for instance, it was a wonderful game to play and it wasn’t annoying to try to figure out if you need to pull something or push something or manipulate something in the environment, the puzzles themselves are the show. This game is poorly done. It’s broken, I bought it, but I will not play it, I’m uninstalling it right now.

The only really annoying aspects are the clues that cover the gameplay so you have to wait till they time out to continue playing.

I absolutely loved the whole Da Vinci series, and number 3 definitely does not disappoint. My teen daughter and I play them together, and she loves them too. Although some of the voice acting is a little off at times, the story is fun and the graphics very striking. As a composer myself, I found the music both beautiful and dramatic when appropriate. It all works to keep you engaged and before you know it, a few hours have gone by - in a good way :) If this is the final entry in the saga, I can’t wait to see what the team does next.
