The omens of the Battle of the Gods have been many, signaling the impending fight for supremacy over all other gods of Egypt. And of course, Assil will be caught in the middle of it all again. Together with his girlfriend Thara, he will have to prevent the sinister Seth from winning the battle and subjecting Egypt to his regime of terror. With the typical Ankh humour, numerous bizarre characters and gags by the wagonload, Ankh - Battle Of The Gods is again a candidate for the adventure gaming throne. Battle Of The Gods feature several new locations, including Luxor, the gambling capital of ancient Egypt. And an unexpected trip takes Assil to a far-away, exotic location, where he will have to deal with the entirely unfamiliar conventions of its native people. The new Ankh features even more detailed character models and smoother animations.
Sale? Check Huge Fan of the Series? Check Then it is worth it! Otherwise, I'd avoid it. Ankh 3 is actually a decent improvement over its predecessor and includes a lot of your favorite characters and that humor from the series...but I honestly don't think it is worth the increased price unless you were a die-hard fan of the other ones.
Спустя многие годы, наконец-то прошел всю трилогию, ура. Необходимое время для прохождения каждой игры в районе 5-6 часов. Впечатления: Анк 1 - оказался неплохой вполне себе квест, есть забавные загадки, много довольно хороших шутеек и слишком большоек кол-во беготни туда-сюда. Личная оценка 5.5 / 10 Анк 2 - геймплейно вообще не понравилась, ровно как и местные локации, но местный юмор спасал порой ситуацию от полного отчаяния. Личная оценка 4.5/10 Анк 3 - стильная и красивая картинка, подтянули геймплей, добавили множество интересных и необычных локаций-ситуаций, но какого-то сверх эпичного грандиозного финала по завершении всей трилогии, к сожалению не последовало. 5.5/10 В целом, Анк оказалась вполне себе неплохой игрой, без каких-либо откровений и запоминающихся вещей (сюжет, герои и пр.), и вполне даже можно пройти всю трилогию, но только в том случае, если ВСЕ квесты рангом повыше (Депонии, Сломанные Мечи и пр. Сэм и Макс) уже пройдены, а современный "ИТАЖЕИНДЕ!!1" хлам вызывает нервный тик.

Pretty good adventure game. It does not make much effort to get you invested. But it has its charm and it did make me laugh. It is similar to Monkey Island.
Das Spiel ist mittelprächtig. Das Spiel ist der dritte Teil der Serie um den Held Assil im alten Ägypten. Fortsetzungen gelingt es ja nicht immer, die Höhe der vorhergehenden Titel zu halten und so ergeht es uns auch mit Ankh 3. Assil und Thara sind nun ein harmonisches Paar, bissige Seitenhiebe sind passé. Nur das Ankh, der heimliche Held dieses Spiels, hält die Fahne des bösen Humors aufrecht. Dabei gibt es Momente, wo ich wirklich auch mal schmunzeln oder lachen konnte, aber es war selten. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=917891130 Das Spiel beginnt ermüdend langweilig. Erst ab dem 3. Level (von insgesamt 8) ging es richtig los. Die Götter entpuppen sich als gelangweilte Gruppe von Snobs, die in eine Art Luxushotel residieren. Es wird aber viel zu wenig aus dieser Idee gemacht. Die Geschichte ist entsprechend ziemlich flach, trotz des bombastischen Titels. Immerhin wird aber ein altägyptischer Mythos neu und spaßig interpretiert. Der Kampf der Götter erweist sich aber im Grunde als ein Wettkampf zwischen dem Ankh und Seth, der nach anfänglichen Herausforderungen dann überraschend schnell beendet werden kann. Wir begegnen fast allen Bekannten aus Ankh 2 wieder, was vielleicht witzig gemeint, aber nicht sonderlich witzig war. Die Figur der Mumie hat mir dabei noch am besten gefallen. Typisch für ein Point & Click muss man Objekte einsammeln, kombinieren und an der richtigen Stelle einsetzen. Dabei waren einige Kombinationen und Verwendungsmöglichkeiten etwas oder ziemlich unlogisch und abweigig. Andere Arten von Rätseln gab es fast nicht. Manchmal musste man den Gesprächspartnern gewisse Dinge entlocken, indem man die richtigen Fragen stellt (die waren gut) oder die richtigen Antworten gibt (1 Mal und das war schlecht). Aber ansonsten habe ich keine Rätsel bemerkt, keine Minispiele oder ähnliches. Bei mancher Gelegenheit hatte ich das Gefühl, als wäre etwas geplant gewesen (weil man zwei Rezepte einsammelt), das man dann weggelassen hat. Auch das Rätsel (das man schon aus Ankh 2 kennt), überrede x Personen, an Assil/Ankh zu glauben, wurde dermaßen simplifiziert, dass es traurig ist. Toll fand ich (von der Idee her) das Rätsel mit dem Escher-artigen Irrgarten, auch wenn es dann relativ leicht zu lösen war. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=917892053 Die zu Beginn des Spiels eingeführte Möglichkeit, zwischen Assil und Thara zu wechseln wurde tatsächlich nur in Level 1 und 2 verwendet und nur ein einziges Mal wirklich gebraucht! Das finde ich enttäuschender als wenn sie die Möglichkeit gar nicht angeboten hätten. Insgesamt bietet das Spiel also gänzlich durchschnittliche Rätselkost. Einige Objekte sind schwer zu finden, aber es gibt eine Taste, mit der man sich interaktive Objekte anzeigen lassen kann. Allenfalls einige abwegige Lösungen können einen manchmal zu einer Lösungshilfe greifen lassen. Die Spielzeit wird dann kaum mehr als 8 Stunden betragen. Die Grafik ist ähnlich der der Vorgänger der Serie, mit dem typischen Comic-Stil. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=917891461 Ich kannte Ankh 1 und 2 mit deutscher Synchornisation, die mir sehr gut vorkam. Insofern fand ich die englische Vertonung von Ankh 3 etwas enttäuschend. Die Bedienung des Spieles ist genreüblich, allerdings muss jedes Objekt nach jedem Versuch erneut aus dem links oben angezeigten Inventar geholt werden, was Trial-and-Error-Passagen etwas umständlich machen. Gespräche und Zwischensequenzen lassen sich überspringen. Ich hatte keine Probleme, das Spiel unter Windows 10 zu spielen. Pro & Contra: + Einige witzige Figuren, Unterhaltungen, Situationen + Einige vernünftige Rätsel/Lösungen o Uninspirierte Geschichte - Einige abwegige und unlogische Lösungen für Rätsel - Zu wenig Tiefe, was Rätsel und Geschichte angeht Wertung: 06/10 Das Spiel hat mich nicht begeistert, es icht aber auch nicht schlecht. Es ist wie ein Nachhall der guten Vorgänger Ankh 1 und 2. Für Freunde der Serie vielleicht Pflicht, für andere ein Kann.
i did not like this game at all. it's to simplistic and it has no charm. this is not a game i think many would like. purely based on the premise that this is not well thought out, the mechanichs and puzzles are also equally bad. which makes this a bad and boring game, in my opinion.
Can I just say how odd it is that Ankh 2 and 3 have such epic-sounding titles, but are reduced to nothing more than standard puzzle solving with heavily-skewed logic and tons of stiff, dry humor. To be honest, in some respects I like Ankh 3 more than Ankh 2. What about Ankh 1, you may ask? I've personally had enough to do with these games that I have no desire to see how it all started. But thanks for the offer, Steam. Why do I like Ankh 3 more than Ankh 2? Probably only one reason- the worlds are more colorfully and creatively designed. They're prettier to look at. But Ankh 3 does about everything else worse than Ankh 2. The story is cluttered and messy, with tons of ideas picked up then dropped (you get drunk and have a random dream of shooting a chicken out of rocket launcher that has no context, no build up for the story, and no humor to it). The puzzles are even more incredibly strange and painful to solve because they make no bloody sense. The new voice actors are leagues worse than those of Ankh 2. And, as I complained in Ankh 2, Ankh 3 relies too much on it's predecessors. It doesn't make any self-aware game jokes like Ankh 2, but there are a lot of reoccuring characters and ideas brought up you'll have no idea of what they are unless you've played at least Ankh 2. And the story tries to take all these silly shenanigans and cliche humor (especially from the ankh. Yeah, it can talk in this one and I hate the bloody thing. I forgot why it was so damn important halfway through the game, and just wanted to toss it), and make it seem big, climactic and important but seeing where everything was built off of, I had no reason to think anything like that. I despise Ankh 2 and 3, and they're currently my least favorite games in my library. I won't even call them the Ankh games anymore. I might as well call them the "wankh" games, because that's essentially was they are, and especially what Wankh 3: Butt of the Gods is. Do not buy this game. Spend your money on something better.
pros + vividly colored nice looking cartoony 3D graphics + there are some funny moments + story is fast paced and enjoyable + egyptian background musics perfectly fits game's atmosphere + diverse cast of witty and engaging characters + character models and cutscenes looks decent + some puzzles enjoyable. there are also inventory puzzles you can combine some items + two playable characters and they are quite likeable cons - dialogs and subtitles sometimes doesn't match - voice acting hit and miss - some puzzle solutions quite nonsensical. therefore generally you don't know what supposed to do - there are no steam achievements - there are no cards - lack of a button which shows hotspots causes pixel hunting - lack of a interactive map causes too much backtracking - a hint system would be helpful. Overall, this final game is an good follow up to trilogy. i quite enjoyed and recommended it.
This game gets a thumbs up from me but barely. It's a decent little point and click adventure that was actually rated pretty highly during its time by the German gaming press but does not hold up particularly well. Let's start with the pros though: - It's not too long and can be finished in well under 10 hours - The game is usually heavily discounted on Steam and can be had for about a dollar at times - It finally has on option to highlight objects on screen (press X) Now for some of the negative: - The story is a direct continuation of the previous game and will make even less sense if you haven't played that one already - But even then, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense and some puzzles seems to be there just for the sake of having them - It's not as funny as it thinks it is - most of the jokes fell flat for me - The puzzles are hit and miss, they are either painfully obvious and trivial or rather obscure and convoluted - Game tends to just quit when you try to switch back to it from ALT+TAB - so save often! - The accents from the voice cast are all over the place and don't make a whole lot of sense - They make a big deal of being able to switch between characters early on, but only use it in the first chapter and then never again. The switch to Thara at the end does not count as you can't switch back to Assil at that point. This seems like a lot of negative and yes, mechanically the game isn't great. It's a decent game though if you liked the first one or (German) point and click adventures from that era.
i recommend this game to anyone who loves point&click adventure games
