Critic reviews
- Gaming Trend8.0I Expect You To Die 3: Cog in the Machine is a great VR experience. It’s incredibly tactile while still remaining convenient and easy to play. However, having to repeat the same parts of levels over and over to progress can get very frustrating.
- techradar6.0I Expect You To Die 3: Cog in the Machine is another solid VR escape room experience from Schell Games. But while many aspects feel like evolutions for the series it plays things safe a bit too often and some of the traps are getting old.
- Way Too Many Games9.5I Expect You To Die 3: Cog in the Machine really hammers home just how great this series is and that there is still so much they can do with the formula. It’s the third game in and not a single aspect feels repetitive, stale, or tedious. Schell Games continues to push themselves and the series forward with great new ideas, more demanding puzzles, and better visuals. Much like the previous two games, I absolutely recommend this game to any VR puzzle fan.
- Game Grin9.0While fun, challenging, and hilarious, I Expect You To Die 3 is unfortunately not perfect. The loading times could be better, and there was the occasional stutter despite it being natively on the Meta Quest 2. But that’s about it! I had a blast playing it, and I really look forward to I Expect You To Die returning.
- God is a Geek9.0I Expect You To Die 3: Cog in the Machine is a wonderfully designed puzzler that puts you into the shoes of Agent Phoenix once again, with puzzles that are layered and interesting. The graphics are impressive, and the level of detail in each location goes a step further than the previous entries in the series. With a great intro, some stellar voice work, and style of Bond-like proportions everywhere you look, it never disappoints, unless you die, but hey, that’s on you!
