Universe 3 description
Action-Packed adventure game, close to an RPG, but not RPG.
The main prospect review – top. In the left part of the screen displays specific room of a spaceship, where we are right extensive interface to control the character: he is doing nothing. Only after clicking on certain buttons he will be walking back and forth to pick up and examine things, go up and down stairs, talking to NPCs and do many other things. Prepare yourself for the fact that the management here is quite complex, and it is because of the abundance of these "buttons".
Is the game and the first person, including in two cases: when you engage someone in dialogue and when you find out some important plot object (e.g. a corpse). The graphics in this mode it is possible to call quality. On the chart in the "main" game mode, unfortunately, I will not say, but it is what it is.
You may have a standard question: what about the plot? Will have to take only one disappointing answer: "alas." Yes, alas, because the number "3" in the title means exactly what you think, is the third and final part of the trilogy, but neither the first nor the second part of the PC did not come out. And an epic story epic space adventure, the final of which is this game remains a mystery to us. All Universe 3 is good, but to play it, unfortunately, impossible.
Only of fragments of abandoned phrases, spending unnecessary effort, managed to understand that at some highway space connecting the earth to the distant planets-colonies, began to disappear ships, and we're playing for the commander (probably) ship, which must deliver to the scene a special Commission to investigate the circumstances. Soon, however, the ship is attack by mysterious creatures that I suspect our crew in the destruction of those ships. But who are these beings, why do they have suspect about a mysterious rocket all the time is it is unclear. One feels that the story is good, smart, tough, but fun from this game – no, what should have been ported to PC only the third part – is unclear.
Posted game just because of good as such. Perhaps enthusiasts will be able to find the first two parts, run them on some unseen emulator and tell what it all means...
