Legends of Amberland III: The Crimson Tower

It's good but it's short. IMO much shorter than Legends II, but has quality-of-life improvements (e.g. midnight rune). Scratches the M&M itch pretty well but ... it would be nice to see a bit more 'complexity' in some future releases (more spells, buying spells from a magic shop, etc.)

I have played all 3 Parts of the Amberland Saga. All are fantastic old fashioned RPGs. If you like such games I can recommend all 3 parts.

A bit more polished than the previous two, and just as good. I'll mostly repeat my review of the previous game: Classic old-school Might & Magic feel: explore one area until it gets too tough, move on to a different area and power up, come back to the first area and enjoy stomping it flat. They don't make them like this any more, except Silver Lemur still does, and good for them. Try the demo if you're on the fence!

It's more of the same, which is good! It ends really abruptly though, which is not so good. The new additions are a mix of new classes and QOL features, which make it definitely the smoothest experience in Amberland so far. Class balance feels pretty good too and you can really experiment even on the highest difficulties without fear of the game becoming a big drag.

"If you liked the first two games, you'll like this one as well" - a lazy but not inaccurate review. However the dev isn't just doing more of the same, this game offers new things (more character classes, clue-based questing) while also improving older systems (game balance is vastly better than in the first two titles!). So overall, a steady and evolutionary improvement for the series. If you make Amberland IV, I will buy and play that one too.

As an old RPG gamer (Might and Magic 1-8 and Ultima 4-6), this game brings back memories from my childhood.

So far this seems like a great sequel to a series I've enjoyed very much so far! I really enjoyed the Might and Magic games this series was graphically and spiritually based on, and it really brings the nostalgia feels for me!
