3RD Sense, which operates the successful play platform Fizzy.com, and develops games and online apps for consumers and innovative brands worldwide, today announced the eagerly anticipated release of Exmortis 3, the next title in the legendary Exmortis horror trilogy by renowned games developer Ben Leffler.
Exmortis 3 is the latest addition in the phenomenally successful franchise that has been considered the benchmark for the ‘Horror Point-n-Click’ genre since 2004 with over 21 million game plays for the first two titles. For millions of fans around the world, the newest bloodthirsty episode delivers a spectacular and long-awaited showdown.
The story begins where Exmortis 2 ended – gamers control the protagonist, Mr Hannay, as he explores a ravaged post-apocalyptic world in search of the demon responsible for the near extinction of the human race. Players are invited to explore visually stunning environments, solve mind-bending puzzles and interact with a variety of fully voice-acted characters. Gamers must defend themselves against a tirade of enemies and wield five ancient powers in their bid to seek revenge, redemption and salvation in this virtual odyssey.
Exmortis 3 will be released in two different formats. A free version allows gamers to play the first chapter of Exmortis 3. A full version of the game is also available as either a download or as an online game for Fizzy.com VIP members and includes the following upgrades:
– Four additional epic chapters of heart-racing action including content and game play considered too graphic for the
free version
– CD quality orchestral backing tracks with professionally engineered sound effects
– Interaction with fully voice-acted characters – maybe even torture a few!
– Over a hundred inventory items to collect which help the player progress through the game
– Points based scoring system for comparison with friends online
– Access to five ‘ancient powers’ including Telekinesis, Perception, Teleportation, Regeneration and the violently
spectacular power, Destruction
– ‘First Person Shooter’ or sniper style action set pieces and sequences
– Climactic bloodthirsty power-laden confrontation between Mr Hannay and the ancient demon Vlaew
– Numerous brain-straining puzzles
– High quality uncompressed graphics
– Full walkthrough
– Save and Load system – allows up to six games to run at the same time.
INTERVIEW QUOTES / Ben Leffler, Creator and Designer of the Exmortis trilogy:
“We have spent three years refining the detail and audio-visual effects for the final instalment of the Exmortis trilogy. The third chapter is a combination of the most successful, horrific and enjoyable elements of Exmortis 1 and 2, and builds on the traditional Point-n-Click genre by adding puzzles and shooter sequences.”
“Considerable planning has been undertaken to perfect the Game’s sense of timing, horror atmosphere and narrative. My advice for gamers is to turn the lights down, sound up and immerse themselves in the journey and terror of Exmortis 3.”
INTERVIEW QUOTES / Colin Cardwell, CEO for Fizzy.com and 3RD Sense:
“Fans have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of Exmortis 3 and they won’t be disappointed. The frightening storyline, intricate detail and chilling sound effects of the final instalment of the Exmortis trilogy we hope will set a new benchmark for the ‘Horror Point-n-Click’ genre.”
“Ben is considered one of the best flash developers in the games industry and is a master of the horror genre. Exmortis 3 truly demonstrates his incredible design skills, creativity and passion for his craft. Fizzy.com is proud to be supporting such innovation and talent.”
