Never got to play this when it first came out, but after having an urge to play some older point and click based adventure games, I decided to install this along with the first title. After having finished the first title, I promptly started this one. I think it is pretty neat that you are on the same island, so things will be familiar to you however, with the changes that you made from the first title. So you will know your way around the lsland. This game has wondeful elements of story telling and a semi complicated system of crafting that makes you use trial and error to accomplish tasks.
I am writing my review based on my playthrough on the Nintendo Switch. I bought this game not thinking too much about it. I had just finished playing Ara Fell and was in the mood for more games similar in nature. Rise Of the Third Power scratched that itch perfectly. From beginning to the very end, the characters felt engaging. The characters made you want to learn so much more about them, their past and It was a joy watching the characters interact with one another. The game had some serious tones to it mixed in with some silliness that kept the story going. The game kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time playing it. I went from hating a criminal to understanding what made him tick which slowly evolved into loving him. The world was beautifully done. I felt like I was playing an upgraded SNES title. I loved every minute of the game.
