Sleep in your bed, and you will dream about flying a spaceship. Go inside your home and take the blue book from your bedside table, then read it. Use your flute on the tree with the hole in it to listen to the woodpecker. Quality may vary across devices.Touch all of the white flowers on the trees here Blossoms. Screenshots and video footage were recorded on the iPhone 6s in order to maintain accuracy to the mobile version of the game. “Samorost 3” is available here for IOS, here for Android, and here for PC. Enjoy the strange interactive adventure that is “Samorost 3.” Taking the game slowly, I set my pace at about one world per day. I found the best way to play the game was sitting back with my headphones on for an hour or two at a time. Just like “ Flower ,” the previous experience I featured in this column, the game’s simple controls make it accessible to players of all ages. The beauty, personality, and accessibility of “Samorost 3” make it a game worth getting. This was the most surprising part of the game for me it’s a great way to help prevent frustration and (unlike online guides) still allows the developers to control the amount of information available to the player. The drawings point players towards a variety of goals from explaining the pattern needed to solve puzzles to revealing hidden secrets. After solving two very simple align-the-dots puzzles to unlock the book, players get access to sketches that share information about the area they are currently in. A “hint book” can be accessed from the menu at any time during gameplay. The fact that “Samorost 3” contains puzzles should not deter players who don’t feel up to the task.
I couldn’t help but have a smile on my face as I encountered progressively more eccentric creatures, spirits, and landscapes during my time with the game. This allows the game’s personality to shine through it presents animations that feel strange and silly alongside sound design that is both entertaining and atmospheric.
Each symbol plays its own beat, allowing the player to mix and match them to create their own music.Īll of these factors motivate players to search throughout each world, tapping and dragging everything they can. Once found, they can be accessed from the menu at any time. There are also several secret emblems scattered about each world which are unlocked through hidden interactions with the environment. The game’s puzzles range from mixing pollen in order to create new types of flowers to shuffling cards with living illustrations to help them hunt other cards’ animals. There is a certain aimlessness to “Samorost 3” that I enjoy. The first example of this is the giant mushroom, which tells the player they need to create a spaceship in order to leave their current world and explore the rest of the game’s universe. The adventure begins beside the home of the game’s protagonist - a short white-haired creature described by the studio’s website as a “space golem.” After a cutscene plays where a mysterious golden horn falls from the sky outside of the player’s window, they are left to explore on their own.Įventually, players are taught they can use their horn to hear special sounds in the environment and then perform them back, which (among other things) reveals spirits that aid players in their journey.
