I read/skimmed through the review, as I needed to do a news report and didn't want to read too many in the way of spoilers.

Overall the review is average. But I seemed to find one thing from what I read that the reviewer gave as a negative side.

He didn't seem to like the fact that you have to explore more to find the solution to a puzzle and that some of the puzzles take longer to solve as you have to think more.

Example: "The solutions to the puzzles are often less straightforward than before, too. Instead of a lightbulb going off in your head when you suddenly realize what you need to do (as would happen in the first two games), sometimes you'll have to fumble around the environments until it eventually becomes clear."

IMO, I like to "look" around in the environments for some solution or something. I treat all games that way... I try to go every possible place.

The other negative point they seemed to have was about repetitivity. Although I guess each review is to it's own, and as we have seen from sites like Team Xbox, Munch has had good reviews.
