What players say
Players are split on this entry in the Syberia series. Many praise the story, music, and beautiful environments, while complaints focus on the highlighted interactive spots that remove discovery, clunky controls, and puzzles that are either too easy or occasionally frustrating. Long-time fans of the first two games are particularly disappointed.
