I played the original games (2018 and 2019) and LOVED THEM so much! Those games are the direct reason why I love these puzzle adventure games so much. It’s been a long time in the making and release, but it was well worth the wait! Often these series types of games skimp out on endings, but this was AMAZING!!! HIGH, HIGHLY recommended series! Fine details and fun quips are always big points of appreciation for me as a player and this does not disappoint. It’s best to play them in order as the quality greatly increases with each game and you need to know the first two to get the references in the last one to make it that much more enjoyable. I will eventually go back and write the first 2 guides, but here is the 3rd game (NOTE: there are plenty of guides on the internet and I usually save my guides for games that don’t have them, but I love these games so much that I’m going to just write them to show my support)

Game Start – Act 3: Temple Redux

NOTE: The puzzle solutions are for CASUAL mode. Also, this game is so long that I have split up the guide into different ACTS

GAME OVER!!

I’m so happy they did such a great job on this game! I know it’s a good puzzle game when I actually play 90% of the puzzles instead of skipping them. I only ran into one glitch which is in the bonus content when you try to play for the figurines you missed before where it crashes the entire game. As of 2/28/2026, I have reported it to the group. I ended up missing… 2-3 of them, I think. Even in the 2nd playthrough, I’m not sure where they are!
