Nemezis: Mysterious Journey III is a first-person puzzle adventure from Roland Pantoła, the designer behind Reah and the Schizm series. Two tourists, Amia and Bogard, arrive on the planet Regilus, end up separated and far from their hotel, and must cross seven maps with different biomes while a guide of doubtful motives steers them. It suits solo fans of classic Myst-style adventures who like exploring alien landscapes at their own pace.
Reception is Mixed: only about half of 72 reviews are positive. Players tag it most strongly as mystery, puzzle, exploration and atmospheric, with walking simulator and casual also getting many votes, which suggests a slower, scenic pace. The store offers several difficulty levels and a digital guide for when you get stuck. The only written review we found says nothing about the game itself.
Written feedback is too thin to explain the split, so judge it on fit: it is single-player and fairly short, with positive reviewers playing a median of about four and a half hours. At its low price it is a fair gamble for Pantoła fans and sci-fi adventure lovers; everyone else may want something with clearer player praise.
