Darkest Fear 3

Mind games were all about simple graphics, mostly no themes attached and colorful.
Come Darkest Fear and mind games have a brand new feel. The game starts with a great promise and delivers it too.

The help mode of the game is very descriptive, animated and innovative. The game offers a unique atmosphere and animation effects that leave you simply spellbound. 15 different puzzles and two characters to control make the player gasping to play it for more.
The soundtrack of the game is exceptional. The sound matches the theme and really sets the tempo for the game.

The story revolves around Helen Warden and Thomas who need to find four ingredients for the antidote that destroys the monster bacteria inside Helen.

Both characters have their own special abilities. Thomas can carry light sources while unable to walk in darkness. Helen is able to Crawl under small things, move big objects and destroy doors. She can’t walk in a light. Player’s mission in levels is to get safely to the goal by utilizing the characters abilities, light sources and surrounding objects

Playing the game was real good fun because the puzzles kept stimulating the mind and the look of the game coupled with story made it worthwhile as well.
The whole idea of moving across a dark terrain and controlling different characters at different times and coordinating with their special powers to end levels enthralls to the maximum.

Rovio deserves to be congratulated for successfully making a case study through The Darkest Fear series and one just hopes that this is just the beginning of times to come where mind games could be packaged this well.

Finally to conclude its heartening to see the horror genre and mind game knit very well to excite and entertain the users. The scene and story perfectly set with evenly matching sound and interface this game is sure something to play and talk about.
