Adventure fans have been waiting for the third game in Benoît Sokal’s classic point-and-click adventure series for so long that I’m not sure I can take the April 25 release date announced today at face value, but that’s when Syberia III is supposed to be out on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
It's a White Christmas for Android gamers, as adventure classic Syberia hits Google Play. Already available on iOS and PC, Benoît Sokal's snowy, character-driven masterpiece can now be had on Android for a mere $4.99. You aren't an adventure game fan until you've played it.
Pre-rendered graphics weren't only used in complex cinematic cutscenes back in the day when a game's own 3D engine couldn't do the job. Developers also used them as in-game backgrounds to bypass graphical limitations. And some of the games had really well-made, atmospheric pre-rendered backgrounds.
