Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion Remastered Reviews

Dino go BRRRRRR

Great remaster job from Nightdive as always. This is my least favorite turok game but it's still good, it's really nice having more linear levels compared to 1 and 2 where you're lost most of the time. However the price is too steep, I beat it in 5hrs exploring everything and even on sale for 20$ that feels pretty bad. Recommend on sale

Turok 3 is the finale of the Nintendo 64 trilogy and I enjoyed it. The levels were less maze like and were more like Half Life levels with how linear it is. My only complaints are that the enemies can blend in into the environments and that it is a much shorter game and feels sort of anti climatic for the finale. I do recommend this game but get it on sale, unless you grew up with it and need it in your collection, just wait for a price drop. Also Nightdive remastering is fantastic as usual, keep it up!

This one is much different compared to the first two games, but still a lot of fun. I remember bits and pieces from childhood. Feels more like Perfect Dark than Turok for some reason. And the asking price is steep, on sale though its a solid N64 era game. The devs really knocked it out of the park on this remaster though!

While this is a fun time, it is certainly not worth anywhere near the asking price. This is really only a recommendation to buy this game when it is heavily discounted, as Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion is extremely short. PROS: - Decent gunplay and weapon variety - Levels are much less confusing than Turok 2: Seeds of Evil (though sometimes they are too simple) - Solid remaster and performance CONS: - Very short, taking ~2 hours to complete - A little bland and unambitious when compared to the previous Turok games

Turok 3 for the most part is an okay shooter with some pretty fun and some not so fun elements. Some things I ended up liking, like the fact you play the game with multiple characters with different weapons; like Danielle having a more "loud" playstyle(rocket and grenade launchers and can jump higher. While Joseph is the opposite.(sniper rifles, silenced pistols and can crawl in tight spaces) Another pretty cool highlight for the game is when you kill enemies with different ways and each time they can play various animations depending on where the final hit was registered. (head, torso etc...) The level design is a mixed bag for me some levels I ended up liking, like chapter 3 and 4's while I disliked chapter 5. Speaking of which, the levels are waaaay too short like you can beat this game in a casual walkthrough in less than 2 hours, which case in point conflicts with the games price... which is an absurd 30 euro. 30 euro for a 2 hour experience is pretty scammy for me. Like yeah you can play different characters with different weapons (which is a plus) but even then it doesn't justify the short playthough since the levels are the same. So the question remains.... do I recommend this game? Well no, but if this game gets below 10 euros then yeah I guess you can try it. (because that 30 dollar pricetag is a little insane for how little it offers)
