agurczuk's review of The Secret Order 3: Ancient Times
A hidden object puzzle adventure game that for the first time in The Secret Order series rises to a certain standard.
Visually it's much better than previous installments. Looks colorful and well detailed. The locations are varied and musky interesting. Same goes for hidden object puzzles.
The story goes off the rails as far as I'm concerned but at it least its coherent. The order has some trouble again and you get to travel to ancient times to fix it. And by ancient times they mean fairytale with gryphons, magic and stuff. But at least it flows well.
The mechanics are pretty standard. Hidden object puzzles are decent, other puzzles are good as well.
As far as HOPA games go this is a solid entry worth paying if you're into the genre.
