Gorgeous and challenging

I played the iPhone edition and my review reflects that experience. First, as other reviews have noted, the graphics, animations, and storyline are off the hook in this game - absolutely gorgeous (and the gnome is too adorable for words). For me, the puzzles were extremely challenging - I could usually figure out the gist of what I was supposed to do, but often needed a walkthrough to get the details. That is probably a reflection of my own inexperience, though. My only real complaint is that the graphic elements on the iphone are sometimes so small that they are difficult to manipulate - when they are smaller than a fingertip, it's hard to see what you are doing. Not unexpected, but occasionally frustrating. All that said, this game was well worth the purchase price for the hours of enjoyment I got out of it!

Bemusing game of exploration and play

I’ve seen many reviews complaining about the lack of instructions or guidance in the game. And they’re correct, there is very little...but this is why I enjoyed it. I felt like the little character in the story, not sure what I’m supposed to be doing yet intrigued by the odd characters and awed by the new worlds. And willing to jump in and just see what happens. I like discovering how a game is played, especially since I’m one who enjoys poking, prodding, and pulling any button, lever, bug, leaf, asteroid, crater, etc. there is...just to see what happens. The story and humor are whimsical and silly. I can see parents playing it with their younger kids and giggles spilling out from both. The art and music are rich and colorful, full of fun. They’re the stars of this game. So if you’re a gamer that needs more depth to a story and prefers more structure and guidance in a game, this isn’t for you. But if you enjoy meandering across quirky worlds, and stopping to smell the alien flowers, then Samorost 3 will charm you.

Marvelous

This was actually a very engaging little game. It was kind of short, but that's okay; it worked for the story. The puzzles were always at the right difficulty level, and if they were too hard, you could always look in the red book in your opinions menu. In the book it would tell you how to solve it, but in a vague enough way that it was almost a puzzle in itself. That's why I don't understand all the complaints about difficulty and puzzles being too obscure. Firstly, when u think about it, all the puzzles were perfectly logical. And secondly, am I the only person who ever figured out to use the red book?! Seriously though. This is a really amazing game on so many levels. Buy it. And wear headphones.

One of my favourite games!

I picked this up at work recently (campus librarians get a lot of downtime) and beat it in a day. The art is gorgeous, every character and creature is adorable, the ability to interact with almost everything had me showing the game to all of my friends and touting how absolutely precious the entire game is. The puzzles can be a bit difficult and require some explanation, but honestly, it's rather in flavour for the game, as you're going through alien worlds anyway, so why not make everything alien? Really glad I picked this up, and will definitely be getting more games from this developer!

Are you kidding ?

This is for Amanita Design. I was actually checking to see if Pilgrims was offered for iOS - no. I have bought both Samorost 3 and Machinarium. They’re both good games, they both show some age, but they’re worth getting. I was really excited when I went to the app store and it just said “complete”. I checked and found that I could simply hit that button to get the other 2 games in the “bundle” for free!! Excellent, right ? WRONG !! I did, I was told they were installed, and then a pop-up appeared telling me they’re no longer available. Uh yeah, they ARE still available in the store, you just seem to no longer want to offer them as a free bundle. You have to now pay for them separately if you want them. Well Amanita if that’s the case, YOU SHOULD REMOVE THE COMPLETE BUTTON. I’ll have to check your supposed “sales” more carefully from now on.

I love Samorost so much

Weird & wonderful! The sound & visuals are luscious, engrossing & bizarre. I played it very slowly so I could draw it out, I just wanted to stay in Samorost 3's magical, mysterious, psychedelic universe forever. It's an odd & beautiful game, and I highly recommend playing Samorost 1 & 2 first - 1 is free online, 2 is only available for desktop but don't let that stop you. Heck, while you're at it, get Machinarium & Botanicula. The gameplay in Samorost 3 is the most abstract of all Amanita's brilliant games so far, so warming up with their other games is a good idea, not to mention incredibly fun.

Glitch in game, no autosave of previous levels. Basically have to start over...forget it!

I am so frustrated with this game right now. Like a previous reviewer, my game glitched in the underground cave where you add an ingredient to a pot to create a bomb. I did what was required...but no bomb. Black creatures just kept singing and singing. I exited game and went to 'saved worlds' screen to reenter and all icons were of the scene at the very beginning of the game - identical. Not sure what would happen, I clicked on the highest numbered one, hoping it would return me to my most recent location. Nope. Back to the very first world. EVERY saved world icon brought me back to the first world. I don't feel like going through all those puzzles again! I loved Botanicula and Machinarium. I would really like a refund for this game. So disappointed.

Terrific game I love it.

I am one of those that cannot spend time playing a game because I get bored or tired of it pretty easily, however this game, as well as Machinarium have gotten my attention and believe me I can’t put them down. They both are so interesting, and engaging. Also, this type of games makes you use your brain, pay attention to details and use logic. I really recommend both games. If you like puzzles, gaming and also looking for entertainment buy these one, you will not regret it.
