Midnight Mysteries 3: Devil on the Mississippi Reviews

This is a Hidden Object/puzzle game and it's pretty fun. The puzzles are a good balance between easy and hard (though I did get stumped a couple times) and the Hidden Object scenes are quite detailed. The story took me about 2 and a half hours but once you finish it, a bunch more stuff unlocks to keep you going for a long time to come!

I am once again pleasantly suprised with MumboJumbo and this installment of the Midnight Mysteries series. So far, I like this one the best. It has a good story and nice crisp graphics. I enjoyed the atmosphere/jumpscares. I wished more HOGs did this. It is nice to experience a slightly scary atmosphere without having to go to the horror genre. Sometimes you just want spooky but not "Outlast" scary. I also liked all the extra goodies included. Would recommend if on sale.

Overall game was pretty good. The puzzles always had some clue to solve them if you looked around and the story kept the game flowing. The only "con" I could see was that the game was fairly short. It does however offer various other play modes after completing the main "story" that does give it some replay value.

Your standard Hidden Object Point and Click game. Nice graphics for a 7 year old game. Has more different puzzles mixed in with the Hidden Object ones, which is a nice change. The plot is decent, mixing historical facts with fiction which I rather enjoyed. :)

I used to play this game all the time when I was 7 and coming back it is still awesome I give it a 34 pineapples out of 2 berries :)

love the game the story and game play is fun and very thought out

Lovely point and click. Not enough good reviews here. The graphics are awesome, the content is historical and engaging for fans of literature, and the whole thing has a very moody tone going for it that few games in the genre match. I like all the Midnight Mysteries games, but this one is a clear step from say the first one about Poe.. These games generally have high-quality music and graphics, and the ride is never too rough in the logic department. Animation is generally spot on and makes the journey worth it. A great way to spend some time clicking things. Definitely a must have for any Mark Twain fans. There are also a surprising amount of extras in this edition. As for the negative reviews... well I don't agree at all. Very few HOG games incorporate even light historical elements, and even fewer have nice animations on a lot of the background and gameplay elements. I had these free from the internet, but decided to buy them here on Steam. On sale they are well worth the full package for the four games. Complaints are mostly petty nonsensical. This is a solid game with a great vibe. Grab a Steam Grid from the database for your LIbrary if you get it.

Very good hidden object game. The graphics are dated at this point, but still well worth playing. This one and Haunted Houdini are my favorites in the Midnight Mysteries series.

Hate searching for things in real life, love it when I do the same on a screen. Can't explain this phenomenon!

Fun way to spend 5 hours. 3 has substantially more scene "scavenger hunts" (not sure what they're actually called) which are my personal favorite part. These scenes also have started to include more crossword-type puzzles than the earlier games did. The story of Mark Twain and his fictional characters was equally good. The cutscene graphics are good enough here. It's still very linear, but it's worth a few bucks -- as long as you aren't an achievement hunter.
