To say that Garten of BanBan 3 is terrible would be far from the truth. Countless moments had me on the edge of my seat, my mind racing with anticipation. The introduction of Sheriff Toadster, a character mentioned in Garten of Banban II, was a welcome addition.

The gameplay is riveting and remarkably well-crafted. The puzzles are ingeniously designed, a testament to the brilliance of the creators. Personally, I love the drone gameplay and the ability to customize it to suit my preferences. The thrilling chase sequences had me on the edge of my seat during my playthrough. Throughout the entire game, I remained focused and engaged, making it one of the best in the trilogy from a gameplay perspective, easily outperforming many indie games.

I'm particularly captivated by the perplexing and fascinating lore and plot of this game. My mind constantly pondered how I arrived at this point in the game. The questions regarding the creatures found in the garten, your missing children, and the mysterious element with an atomic number of infinity kept my curiosity aflame. Garten of Banban III expertly taps into the natural human desire for knowledge and exploration, pushing the boundaries of our thinking in unexpected ways. The introduction of new characters adds to the intrigue of the strange Kindergarten setting.

The game also effectively uses QR codes, a feature first introduced in Garten of Banban I, on the notes you can collect throughout the game. These notes, which can be found in the Journal section of the Main Menu, offer insightful information on "Uthman Adam," a figure that appeared in Garten of Banban II but was actually introduced in the previous game as well as a juicy amount of lore. Playing as many characters for brief periods of time enhances the experience by illuminating their distinctive stories and contributions to the Garten's great plot.

Lastly, the conclusion and climax to the game was really astonishing. Nearly all of the characters come together in an exciting 50 minute sex scene conclusion, signifying a greater absorption in both the Garten itself and its complex plot. Any person who dives into this universe will have a profoundly changed experience as a result of this game and the trilogy as a whole. It pushes our cerebral and emotional limits with its clever puzzles and compelling story. My entire point of view on the state of gaming has been changed by this game. I am ecstatic to see what kind of MIND BOGGLING features the Euphoric Brothers will throw at us in the next game.
