Description
Alien Breed™ 3: Descent is the final explosive chapter in the Alien Breed™ series, and is a science fiction arcade-shooter with an epic story, swarms of highly intelligent alien enemies, high-impact weapons and stunning environments, developed using Epic Games' Unreal® Engine 3. Descend into hell and once again take control of the hero, Conrad, the ship’s Chief Engineer, in his last stand against the savage alien horde. While the doomed vessel, the Leopold, and the alien space craft plunge deeper into the planet’s atmosphere, with an icy ocean promising a watery grave, you have just hours to defy a grisly death and survive the alien onslaught for the final time. As you struggle deeper into the sinking alien ship, through the freezing waters flooding every corridor, the horrifying truth surrounding the existence of the Breed is finally uncovered…

Best of the trilogy

Only played single player campaign in Veteran difficulty, no multiplayer or horde mode. This 3rd part is the best of the trilogy. Less samey-feeling levels. More cutscenes. More bosses. So you feel like something is actually happening vs the previous ones. Played it using both keyboard+mouse (playable) and controller (much better if you have one). My biggest complaint is the sudden camera rotations when you are either near the map edge or during certain sequences. Also not a fan of the fixed camera sequences but I guess it adds variety. Did not encounter any issues when I played it on 2 old Win10 laptops (core i3 3rd gen + iGPU, core i3 3rd gen + Nvidia GeForce 730M gpu). Got the trilogy for free, but if I had to buy any of the AB titles in the trilogy, I'd pick this one.

Copy and Paste Game

If you managed to survive the previous two games, prepare your mind for more mind numbing fetch quotes through a exploding hellscape that would make Michael Bay blush. Nothing has been improved, some sections are still fixed camera without rotation control, game cheats by frequently spawing enemies right behind you, they replaced the Mini-Gun from the 2nd game for an electrical weapon that is downright useless, an absolute downgrade.

Great game

I've really enjoyed the end of the triology, it lasted less than the previous two, I still have a problem with the logs being repeated except for the ones related to the bosses, Klein's dialogue gets repetitive too. In the cutscenes there aren't subtitles (except the comic type ones) and the moments that Conrad talks about what he is going to do is in a text in the same corner that shows what he gets from the bodies and ammo that he picks up and it just gets lost and you have to assume most of the time. Really thats just the major problem with this triology, nonetheless i've enjoyed playing the 3 games and its worth buying.

Great twin stick shooter

Chill and kill some aliens. And the story is also quite good. The game is pretty linear but fun.

Fun, but ....

This 3rd installment of the series is as fun as the previous games but has one minor annoiance, at least for me - the almost scripted scenes with fixed camera angle, transforming this isometric game into a "2D" action game. Gladly, these moments are sparse, but when they happende they really broke the mood for me. In spite of that, I still recommend this game.
