aMAZE Gears 3

Great game! Amazing soundtracks too!

[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote] Amaze Gears 3 is an asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Blender Games, took a template from the godawful GameMaker Studio from YoyoGames, slapped a couple of asset flipped sprites on it, and dumped the results onto Steam as a cash grab scam. Don't believe me? Here's some other asset flips from exactly the same template, all shamelessly dumped on Steam as nasty cash grabs: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/604780]Amaze[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Blender Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/628750]Amaze 2[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Blender Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/986990]Amaze Christmas[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Blender Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/853860]Amaze Classic[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Blender Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/874010]Amaze Classic: Inverted[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Blender Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/692200]Amaze Dark…

aMAZE Gears 3 is a minimalist puzzle-arcade title that doubles down on precision, repetition, and spatial awareness, offering a deliberately stripped-back experience built around navigating compact mazes filled with hazards. Developed and published by Blender Games, the third entry in the aMAZE Gears series does not attempt to reinvent its formula, instead refining a familiar structure that prioritizes clarity, focus, and steady difficulty escalation. It is a game that knows its audience well, catering to players who enjoy short, methodical challenges rather than narrative-driven or mechanically layered experiences. At its core, aMAZE Gears 3 is about movement and restraint. Players control a small gear navigating tight labyrinths, with the sole objective of reaching the exit portal hidden somewhere within each level. Controls are immediate and responsive, relying on basic directional input, but the simplicity of movement is offset by the unforgiving nature of the environments. Hazards such as spikes, moving obstacles, narrow corridors, and timing-based traps ensure that even a small misstep sends the player back to the start. This instant failure-and-retry loop forms the backbone…

Amaze Gears 3 Once Again, much like its predecessor, I have similar grievances with this game. However, I must acknowledge the introduction of a new obstacle, which deserves credit. This puzzle game offers a highly challenging experience, with a concept that is both unique and enjoyable compared to many other puzzle games. The inclusion of double achievements still bothers me, and I would only consider purchasing it if it were on sale. Nevertheless, it is still a decent game overall. The most difficult obstacles in the game are undoubtedly the ones that require navigating through spikes that move in and out. The soundtrack is also satisfactory. It took me approximately 120 minutes to fully complete the game.

Again, similar to the second game, most complaints I had apply here as well. One thing I have to give credit for is the new obstacle. But the timing on those is really difficult with the continued bad controls and movement making it just not enjoyable. The added gold color is a good try to expand the color scheme but again, the metallics clash more with each other than actually being nice to look at. Overall, as [i]aMAZE Gears 2[/i] this game just isn’t worth it. [u]Achievements[/u] Achievements are basically the same as in its predecessor. 50 levels, 100 total achievements, and you unlock 2 per level completion. Easy but frustrating 100%.
