I think this is one of my favorite games ever! I was hesitant. I played 2 and it was good. I played this one and I just fell in love with it!

Absolutely lovely! Puzzles are a nice challenge without being too difficult, the artwork is lovely, another great job from the Amanita guys!

Samorost 3, an adventure in to the world of microorganism
An amazing Point&Click expierience, Amanita Design took 11 years to make this sequel and they did right.
Pros:
- Visuals are beyong beatiful. The very first moment you see the starting are, you're gona be blown away.
- Puzzles in a big variety, there are so many of them.
Even if they are to hard, you have a book where you have to aline the red dots and you get the solution for the map you are currently in.
- Secrets do pay off in the end, it's even possible to find them all in the post-game.
- Inventory ist not an option in Amanita Design games, no item searching, no item carrying around with you, no item combinations to guess and no guessing where to use them.
- Music is a feast for the ears. Althgou most sounds do sound like made with the mouth, the chemistry still so on point, when you unlock all secrets, you can mix them however you like and it still sounds dope.
Neutrals:
- Clickables are sometimes easy to guess, but other times it's like a search for the needle in the haystack.
But at the same time you're carrying a Solutionbook with you where you can look up what you can click on.
- Controller Support is there, not shown in the store page, but you can use controller to play.
-Pricetag of 20$ looks/sounds harsh, but when you only get evry 2 years a new game from them and such uniques ones like this one, made with a ton of love, you'll understand.
Cons:
- Solutionbook is a typical feature for Amanita Design, but you have always repeat that one puzzle to open the book again when you're on a map where you opened it once already.
Verdict:
This is one of the best, might even be the best, point&click adventure of 2016.
And for me in particular in years.
Because Amanita Design brings at best 1 game evry 2 years and when they do, it's something unique!
If you interested or not, try Samorost 3 out, but i kinda feel to have to recommend it when it's on sale.

Awesome...Awesome...Awesome...
"Machinarium" was my first Amanita Design's game. I have enjoyed it very much and this title is also awesome.

Probably one of my favorite games of all time. I not only played this game through, but went back and got every achievement that i could... as well as collect all the regular and foil cards for it.
People that will like this game
- Puzzle Game
- Beautiful Game
- Bizarre Game
- Although it should be played in one sitting, you don't have to.
- Playtime is short, as I've played this game twice, I knew how to get through it pretty easily after I decided to install it on Steam (for a challenge!)
People that wouldn't like this game
- Long playtime
- Not looking for beauty or a psychedelic trip of some type
- Didn't enjoy any of Amanita's other games (you'd be a fool)
- Don't enjoy a game that makes you feel as though you are in a fever dream.
MY conclusion:
One of my favorite games of all time. And if you enjoy this game, try other Amanita games, they are the best.

Amazing game, quick to get into, complex puzzles but still intuitive. Obviously the art style is standing out. If you wanna get all the achievements you most likely have to follow a guide, like I did. Other than that, another hit just like Machinarium

An enjoyable experience.
I played Samorost 2 first which my daughters really enjoyed watching (4 and 5) so I also tried the sequel which is clearly technically better but about more of the same. Of all the Amanita games, I enjoyed Machinarium the most so this recommendation comes behind that one.
If you like point and click games, the Samorost games are decent affairs. You can try playing the first one since its free and try to figure out whether you find that world / universe interesting enough. If so, give it a whirl.
