PS3 SYBERIA 3 SERIES
Much like a point-and-click game, you can converse with NPC’s in fully-dialogued interactions, investigate the environments and use items to solve a series of puzzles. However, you can chop and change these modes whenever you like throughout the game. The first focusses on the story, giving you an easier ride with visual clues and hints, whilst the second mode follows the mechanics of its predecessors more closely, with less hand-holding. Primarily a 3D puzzle-adventure, the game offers two ways to play: Voyage and Adventure. It’s also worth mentioning that this release also contains An Automation with a Plan DLC a nice inclusion that gives a different viewpoint to the journey of Kate Walker. However, if you do want to catch up with the background of Kate Walker, then there is a ‘previously’ video which helps to bring newcomers up-to-date to the events preceding this adventure.
