Купил игру потому что показалась на внешний вид интересной. После первого дня начал читать руководства, смотреть гайды, не выдержал, нажрался травы и передумал играть. Воистину лучший проект.

Всё в комнате было ворованным. Даже воздух был какой-то спёртый.

Лучшая игра всей серии. Жду продолжения как перерождения!

For a long time I passed by this game, missed sales, huge discounts. And all because almost all the video reviews created the wrong impression about the game: every frame showed through vulgarity and senseless cruelty, all the most valuable and interesting things seemed to be deliberately avoided, referring to the general wording of the “fun process”.

Well, in part, everything is true, but just that partly. The fact is that Saints Row: The Third is presented to each player a little differently: some will run with ecstasy, swinging right and left a huge pink dildo, will certainly create a busty blonde in the character editor and properly dress her, others will stick more conservative canons - the gameplay will change accordingly. And this is the main advantage of the game.

The plot at first glance is simple and trite, but how it is served ... Statement of literally every mission is at a height, and the scale of events goes off scale. And if they were making an entertainment movie, his budget would have exceeded a record high. And this is only the plot basis. To diversify the passage, we are given a whole city, which at first belongs to various groups. In carrying out side tasks, we gradually regain our influence in the city, we buy real estate (ordinary houses and shops / workshops), we look for nest egg and other collecting items. The secondary part of the game is diverse and does not bother.

The picture of the game is juicy and still looks decent, and the musical arrangement is beyond praise - for just one song in the final mission (Bonnie Tyler - Holding Out For A Hero) I want to get up and applaud!

Do not miss, Saints Row: The Third is definitely worthy of your attention. No wonder it is still played by thousands of players. Mastkhev and subjectively one of the best open world games.

Story
The storyline is definitely a strong point of this game. Rather than giving you evrything from the start, you get thrown into an unknown world with little known about the end of the game and the path that leads to it. You find out more progressively as you search and discover ruins to find ancient relics that give more clues about the past. However, you don't have to explore each area to its fullest potential the first time you enter the game, you can also come back to areas with fast travel (except for at the very end towards the conclusion of the game). The tombs you can raid are also kind of like side quests and the relics that you can find, both inside the tombs and around the map give you insight into the area and the main story. There are also several cut scenes that add onto the story and I thought the experience was a lot more directed than a game such as Skyrim, but it still provides a large amount of freedom.

Overview
This is going to be a really long review, so I'm just going to start off with an overview of the whole game. For, one I really enjoyed playing it because of its unique playstyle and interesting storyline. This game kept me engaged the whole time and even though I finished the main storyline, I feel like there is sitll more for me to do. And one last thing, I won't be reviewing Multiplayer here, since I haven't played multiplayer yet.

Level Design/Graphics
Speaking of freedom and your ability to enjoy the world around you, I feel like this feeds perfectly into another aspect of the game. One of the most important parts of the modern game is the graphics engine with which it runs, as well as how it is exploited to provide the best experience. Though this Tomb Raider is undoubtedly older than what one would consider modern, I still find that it does a good job with shaders and keeping the world immersive. And though the textures, normals maps, and hair physics may not be the best I have ever seen, they are still very good. The cinematic cutscenes feel actually cinematic and everything seems to be smoothed out with animations which makes the experience itself a lot more enjoyable. I also really enjoyed how this game had well worked out levels, beautiful scenery, and a in fact a partially open world experience. Though some levels will collapse, break, and change once you go through them, other parts of the island are simply very enjoyable slow-paced worlds than can be explored once the game is over, which brings to my next point.

Gameplay
Last, but not least I want to talk about gameplay (please keep in mind this review is directed at those interested in Tomb Raider for the single player experience). The gameplay was fluid and interseting. You have the parkour notion which is one of the biggest parts of the Tomb Raider series. This part doesn't seem to be too difficult in this game, but it certainly isn't easy either. Another portion is the shooter portion where a bunch of guys try to murder you and you protect yourself (because you don't want to die). However, the main part about this game in particular that I like, is that there isn't just one way to go about all this. Somtimes you can be sneaky and try and get around without being seen, or take out any guards before the sound an alarm. Another way is to just run into battle (which I wouldn't recommend). There are so many ways to make your way through the levels. And even though combat was for the most part repetetive, there were some new enemies introduced as the game proceeded, which made the game a bit harder, though not that much harder. The game also introduced new elements to the game as it proceeded which made the experience a bit more dynamic. However, every now and again, the game struggeled a bit with finding where to place the camera, and it gave me some confusing moments. Other times Lara (the main character) would not grab on to the zip line (and thus fall to her death). But other than that I don't really have any complaints.

Conclusion
Should you buy this game? Yes, it will provide you with a great deal of fun, and you will definitely enjoy the experience.

This game is the best one of the series up to the remake in my opinion, and especially fans of south-american, and norse mythology will get more than their money's worth out of this. The graphics can still compete with many comparable games today, and will demand higher system specs than you would estimate.

I will say this though: If you are familiar with the "old school" Tomb Raider games, the game's puzzles will be smooth sailing for you. The game is fairly easy and you always have the feeling of being Superior to your enemies, however the landscapes, architecture, and atmospherical beauty in every single location makes this game a must-have for not only Tomb Raider fans, but also graphic afficianados, RPG fans, and intricate story lovers.

I rate this game with 4 of 5 possible stars, but only because of its easy predictabillity when familiar with the franchise

Crime Secrets: Crimson Lily is an exceptionally good hidden object adventure game made by One More Level and is very similar to the 9 Clues series (the developers might be the same just working under a different name) where the player has to investigate crime scenes and gather clues to figure out solve a serial murder case. I'm quite surprised by the mixed ratings the game has currently, since the quality of the plot exceeds other HOGs and its serious tone (several people get killed) is quite uncommon in the genre.

When the usual female detective (the protagonist in most Artifex Mundi games) goes on a vacation to a beautiful snowy mountain resort to relax, she suffers a car accident. By following the police officer, who was also present at the crash and reaching the hotel eventually, she must use all her wits (and sixth sense) to track down a serial killer and uncover a case, in which many of the locals seem to be involved.

The game's unique feature is the segments where we have to search for clues at the crime scene and arrange them in chronological order to reconstruct an event (a murder most of the time), that happened there. It then replays before our eyes and helps us locating another clue, evidence or useful item, that'll get us one step closer to finding out the identity of the murderer (there'll be a twist, even if we have suspicions about who he is).

There's a variety of puzzles providing enough challenge and the hidden object scenes aren't overused (which is a good thing). The charm of the game lies in its story and the wonderful scenery it takes place in: the beautiful snow-covered mountain landscape, the vivid coloured interior of the antique hotel are all great to look at. The chilly wind blowing improves the already perfect atmosphere further. The attention to the little details is also something to be appraised: we find little notes and photos, recordings that link the participants together and our diary proves to be handy (besides being interesting to read) as well. There are collectibles in the form of snowflakes and origamis that can be fairly easy to miss, so keep your eyes peeled.

As for problems I could mention some strange/illogical item uses (the occasion for example where we have to use a shovel to pull something off a shelf, or cut a pillow open to burn the stuffing) plus the strange appearance of angel statues made of ice and traps towards the ending. I also encountered a description error where a hula dancer doll's flower necklace was wrongfully described as a 'fishing rod' (I did have to use it as a fishing rod though, so as a hint it was pretty good ;))

As mentioned before I was completely satisfied with the graphical presentation: it is as beautiful as a HOG should be with excellent scenery. I really liked the artwork, it has a classic stylized feel about it, at the expense of realism a bit. The suspenseful music and the superb environmental sounds with the wind blowing and wolf howling (yes there are wolves as well) are truly impressive. The voice actress, Amy Robinson did a very good job providing her voice to our detective.

I was absolutely fascinated with Crime Secrets: Crimson Lily and I would recommend it to everyone, even to players who normlly don't play casual adventure games. The story and the wonderful landscape both make it a memorable, outstanding (for me, one of the best) example of its genre. It is one of those rare HOGs which I'd definitely play through again in time.

PROS
+ amazing, atmospheric locations
+ exciting plot with twists
+ crime scene investigation and reconstruction
+ a good variety of puzzles
+ great sound effects, voiceover and music

CONS
- some illogical item uses
- a bit surreal towards the end (ice angels?)

RATING
8.5/10

That my friends is a game that will carry on with you forever.

It's like roulette; fun until it turns into Russian.

Tomb Raider: Anniversary is a solid re-imagining of the original game which makes use of the Tomb Raider: Legend engine, meaning a game that's much more user-friendly and playable control-wise, and of course packs quite the graphical upgrade.

Controlling Lara is a breeze with her acrobatics and various feats of parkour coming out smoothly and naturally whether using a gamepad or keyboard and mouse. This makes the fact that a good 70-80% of the game is straight platforming and puzzle solving all the more enjoyable. A keen eye and critical thinking are required to leap, grab, and grappling hook your way out of each scenario, and the game has a fairly generous system in place to help guide Lara to platforms, but most of the work is still up to the player.

The only real downsides of this remake are the combat and sometimes dodgy camera control and how that can interfere with some late-game platforming segments. Combat in general feels very mushy. Gunplay never really felt satisfying, though the lock-on and shoot mechanic does help smooth things out a bit. Issues arise however when enemies are able to get close, and especially if they're enemies capable of flight. The camera really loses track of what to do and can often cause a lot of seemingly unfair damage to be taken because of the obstruction.

The camera particularly fails in one of the final areas of the game (The Great Pyramid), where a long series of timed jumps are required to proceed. The camera gets positioned in ways that obstruct the path and you may find yourself making blind leaps and grappling hook attempts in vain. Even worse is that movement can end up completely fudged in this sequence since the controls are relative to what the camera is doing and leaps and grabs you were capable of earlier in the game suddenly have to be performed with different or nonsensical button combinations because the camera hasn't decided what forward and backward are or hasn't communicated it properly.

Even with its faults though, this is a fantastic puzzle platformer with a silly as all hell story and some great locations to parkour around in.

If nothing else, this game is easy 100% achievements.

This game is only clicking mouse 1. You can't work to get your company automated to generate cash or subscriptions. You simply need to work for it by clicking mouse 1.

Soon you realize there is nothing to gain when all you can do is buy new youtubers - what the store page refers to as "playable characters". What a joke. These playable characters are simply different face for you to look at while you click mouse 1.

This game was entertaining for less than an hour. It has no replayability. It has nothing to keep you interested for a longer period of time. Well.. the game is super cheap so why not enjoy that 30 to 60 minutes? Have a beer and click away.
