Description
Enigmatis 3: The Shadow of Karkhala is the final chapter in the blockbuster trilogy, an exciting detective story rife with adventure, puzzles, and ancient mystery. Follow the trail of a demonic preacher and unravel the secrets of Karkhala Peak! What secrets does the ancient monastery hold, high on its snow-covered mountain slope? What has brought the demonic Preacher here, and can anyone stop him now that he is more powerful than ever?

The demonic preacher has escaped to the remotest mountains in pursuit of a grim secret that could give him ultimate power. He has already eluded the investigation of the protagonist detective and her partner Hamilton twice: once in Maple Creek, and again in Ravenwood. It’s no mystery that this time it’s personal.

After returning to Maple Creek and uncovering new evidence about the preacher’s enigmatic plan, the two detectives set out in search of a centuries-old monastery hidden high in the breathtaking mountains where the immortal preacher’s lifelong quest for world domination could finally meet its sinister end.

What is hiding in the ancient monastery that clings to upper reaches of the snow-covered mountain? What nightmarish secret is the preacher looking for there?

Drawn into this ancient struggle between the forces of light and darkness, the detective must defeat the ominous preacher at any cost. Will they even be able to stop him now that he’s more powerful than ever before?

Poorly Optimized With Clever-ish Puzzles

The Enigmatis series of games has better than average puzzles than the standard hidden object game because they are typically related to the action at hand, and there is some suspense as you are trying to, e.g., save your own life by solving a puzzle. The game made good use of its budget by keeping its use of character models limited and focusing on its 2D art, which is very good. The background music has improved, I noticed. There are some nice "Eastern"-themed tracks for the later sections of the game. There are some things that aren't necessarily cons, but they can get old. This game has you rescuing a helpless little girl, which, if I remember correctly, happens in both the other games. (It is definitely a recurring theme in hidden object games.) This particular one is being trained in a *spoiler spoiler* as a *spoiler*, so it is really strange that she spends her time drawing with crayons in a stereotypical "cute" way. Also, the supernatural elements are introduced in a ridiculously casual way. The characters never act surprised or disturbed by seeing any new phenomenon, and the voice actors recite fantastic stories matter-of-factly. Let me also note that he character models and animation are just "off" enough to be creepy. What I found really annoying was the poor optimization of the game. The load times were up to 10 seconds by the end of the game, and that was between scenes that were as short as 2 seconds long. This killed my immersion entirely. During the bonus chapter, the game started lagging really badly as well. Steam commenters report that this can be fixed by restarting the program. I didn't know that while I was playing, but it may help you. (I searched to make sure this wasn't a problem unique to my computer or the GOG version. It is not.) I'm going to give the game three stars for its attempts at involving puzzles, but leaving in memory leaks or whatever is going on with the optimization was a really poor choice.

Great game

The whole Enigmatis series is amazing, and this is a worthy finale. Much more coherent plot than most hidden object games. Good length, lots of puzzles, definitely pick up when it's on sale. (Deducted a star for crashes)

Frequent crashes, looses savegame

The game starts off nice enough, similar to its prequels. Unfortunately it crashes every few minutes (at least on Linux) and one of those times it lost the current progress (savegame) so I would have to start from scratch again.

The best in the series ...

The best in the series but as other players have mentioned it takes several seconds of black screen to load between scenes which is quite annoying. The game plot is good, graphics excellent, puzzles very interesting, however the ending was very abrupt leaving us in hope that there will be a sequel in the future which I will look forward to.

Very good Hidden Object game and series

Each installment of the series is a standalone game with a complete story. That said, if you want to see the full story, you'll need the 3 games of the series. The game is (are) very good. They all contains most if not all of the regular features for that type of game. They are all the "collector edition" so they have a bonus chapter after completing the main game. Recommended.
