The Beetle Bug 3 game coming from casual game developers Intenium is a Platformer game adventure featuring the famous Irish insect, Beetle Bug as he tries to save his bug-napped children from the clutches of enemy fly swatters. Well, yes, I did realize that it's really one absurd story, but I liked it anyway, and it effectively opened up Beetle Bug 3's long platform-style puzzle adventure.
The story behind Beetle Bug 3 opens up as our insect hero was tasked by his wife to buy some supplies in the supermarket. Joined by 2 bugs from his thousands of sons and daughters, Beetle Bug was surprised afterwards when he found out that the rest of his family had been bug-napped! Well, not entirely all because his irate wife is still safe, but since he doesn't want to experience again the pressure of making another set of children, Beetle Bug goes off to the rescue, while utilizing a number of tools they get to discover along the way.
Just like its predecessor, the Beetle Bug 3 game plays just like a Pacman-style adventure where you're objective is to save all of Beetle Bug's children by leading them safe to the nearest exit. You'll be able to use some nifty tools too to help you out, but always keep in mind that all the tools are also limited in use. Enemies are also present to prevent you from saving your precious children but nothing good planning and wise tool usage can easily solve. Basically, you just have to protect the little bugs, plan your every move, and utilize quick thinking too and you're all set to finish the game. However, that's also easier said than done since the vast number of platform puzzles can also take its toll on the old noggin'.
The Review
The Beetle Bug 3 game easily proves that Intenium games had really put in a great production value into their casual game releases. The 3D graphics are very nice on this release and the game play is very smooth too even though you're using mouse actions to move Beetle Bug around the play area. And coupled with such a funny storyline, I'm really impressed and honestly, I think that Beetle Bug 3 is one of the best platformer casual games that I've played in a while since Super Granny 4.
This game doesn't even deliver less when it comes to challenge because I actually found myself stuck many times on most of the game's puzzles. The difficulty can get quite frustrating too though because if you ran out of lives, you'll have to contend with starting the game all over again. And considering if you're already on the later levels, this can be such a pain too.
In terms of audible quality, the Beetle Bug 3 game features great action sounds as well as many amazing voice-overs. Beetle Bug's many comments and quips during play are so funny that I bet you'll smile just even once when you play this game. I guess that the translations and quality of voice talents can use some work though, but that's really not enough of a complaint to warrant me having less fun with this game.
All in all, the Beetle Bug 3 game is fun and challenging and it's definitely worth your try even for the free trial mostly offered on casual game titles. It has such a hilarious storyline and I bet you'll crack up too on many of our hero's wacky quotes during the smooth flow in game play.
