The Lost Heir 3: Demon War

Rules keep changing and its impossible to make the story work. i quit before the end.

A lot more meandering than the first 2 games. The whole first couple acts (Back to School and One Piece Light) felt kinda divorced from what I was interested about in this series. Last act is pretty cool tho, and I like seeing your allies joining you to finish the fight. Ah... could have been better. But I still enjoyed the game aspects of the gamebook, and I like that checks got harder and were often multi skill checks. A lot of the classes get some neat uses.

It's a tough game and way too long considering the lack of checkpoints... but I've gotta take my hat off to the sheer number of different paths you can take. If you've played the prequels you should obviously finish the trilogy

I really loved it

Got this in a bundle with the two other chapters, and you cannot simply play the story with one character from start to end. Instead, after each chapter it will spam you with ads and a survey, and demands you create an account with your email, so you have access to your progress in the next chapter, but only if you go through a manual process several times for each new play-through. If you do not create an account it will refuse you access to your progress for the later chapters, robbing your time. Each chapter must be started as a separate game, which is fairly disappointing. So then you have to start from scratch with a generic character & set of decisions, and missing content. Or cave in and bow to the publisher's whims. Playing from scratch in chapters 2 and 3 makes for an extremely lacking experience. - the game misleadingly advertises seamless game experience - the game contains hidden cost and hidden barriers apparently in violation with EU law - the store page fails to mention the mandatory account creation needed for this game to work - the games demands user email credentials to work without mentioning that anywhere - the game does not deliver the bought content As…

As the other two, wonderful. Actually I think this is the best of the three for a few reasons... It feels deeper - you keep having new things happening, new places... it is nice. And the number-balancing aren't as harsh. Honestly you can mostly forget about them and actually role-play, since your numbers are all what they should be from 1-2, which feels wonderful. I will say that given its length and ABSOLUTELY EVIL LACK OF A SAVE SYSTEM I pretty much kept a walkthrough open. Picked what I'd like to do but before committing I'd just check there. Not how I like to play but it was either that or one miss-click bad-ending and I have to spend 20 min mindlessly reclicking everything to get to the same place, and hoping I don't make a mistake. Which sucks and is boring. So.... walkthrough open, the story was fantastic, felt suitably heroic / villany, and the ending was deliciously climactic. Love it :D
