Although the threads that weave this series together return, its delivery is wholly underwhelming. In their day, Syberia 1 and 2 were regarded as distinguished point-and-click adventure games that captured both mysticism and mystery, but 13 years later, most of that has been lost in Syberia 3. I'm eager to play more.Once in a while, a renowned series from the past makes a welcome return after years in hiding. I agree with the reviews that it isn't necessarily innovative, however I do think it's very ambitious and introduces some interesting storytelling mechanics. The puzzles aren't a focus of this game, so if you're in it for that. It's different from the first 3 in how cinematic and social it becomes, more in line with the modern adventure titles like Life is Strange. The story felt directionless at first, with a motive I frankly find very weak - but I think it's starting to come together. I don't know what to tell you! It's beautiful, they clear up some weirdness from 3 super early on, this game just keeps surprising me. The story of the games certainly went places in Syberia 3 and I was honestly shocked they're leaving it canon and continuing on. I'm a fan of the series, mostly in love with Benoit Sokal's gorgeous worlds and all the automaton designs. So, I pounced on this game the millisecond I could. The experience, however, leaves something to be desired when it comes to innovation, making the game a must-buy only for fans of the series. Syberia - The World Before is a return to form for the series, and an all-around solid adventure game featuring an engaging story that nicely blends together two different timelines, charming characters and good puzzle design. Syberia: The World Before gave me back that sense of wonder that I felt, twenty years ago, with the first two episodes and, for this reason alone, for me it is a "yes" as big as an apartment building. The Games Machine - Paolo Besser - Italian - 9 / 10 Well attached to its inspirations and classic patterns in terms of narration and game design, Syberia The World Before is a very good point and click adventure, and a great tribute to Benoit Sokal. Spaziogames - Marcello Paolillo - Italian - 7.8 / 10 Visually wondrous and full of logical, fair puzzles and likable characters, this is a worthy entry in the series, despite a jarring conclusion and some rather poor performance. It is still a very good production, which should satisfy primarily fans. ![]() It does not do anything innovative, it shallows the adventure pedigree, but it is played wonderfully. It's just that the bar has been set so high that it's hard to jump over. Siberia: The World Before is rather the weakest installment of the cycle, but this absolutely does not mean that it is a bad game. Robert Chełstowski - Polish - 8.5 / 10 So we are dealing with the closing of a chapter and saying goodbye to the wonderful world. Siberia: The World Before was released after the death of Benoît Sokal. Sokal's latest work continues the story that began with the legendary first chapter and will drag us on a personal and introspective journey, dotted with suggestive sequences and intriguing puzzles.
