Summary: Mysteriously beautiful
Review: I have played many adventure games and I am a dedicated fan to all adventure games on the PC, But I've never played such an intriguing and mysterious game! The 3D graphics make you feel that you are in the game itself ! The actors' voices and music are really magnificent.If you liked ANY adventure game, you will LOVE Gabriel Knight 3.

Review: In fairness, I haven't beaten this game yet, but man is it great. I love adventure games, but for whatever reason, they all seem to be dying. Well, Gabriel Knight may just be what cures this. The 3D graphics make it so that when you're stuck, you always feel like there is still something to do. You can move around the rooms and watch what people are doing, analyze information, dust for fingerprints, and in general enjoy the interactivity. I haven't run into any major bugs, either, which is nice. By the way, if you like the plot, you would do well to read the non-fiction book it was loosely based on, "Holy Blood, Holy Grail," which details Sauniere and Rennes Le Chateau.

Summary: If you love mystery novels, you'll love this game!
Review: This is truly the next step in interactive fiction. While you may think of computer games as just kids stuff, "Gabriel Knight - Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned" will change your mind. Imagine stepping into your favorite mystery novel, and becoming one of the characters. You get to walk around, explore, question suspects, solve puzzles, uncover secrets... This game has everything: mystery, romance, history, great dialogue, beautiful European scenery. If you've never played a computer game before, make this your first! And if you are already a gamer, this game is like nothing you've ever played before. It brings adventure gaming to a new level. P.S. There are two other games in this series, which give great background to this story. You don't need to play them first, but you can find them both in the title "Gabriel Knight Mysteries: Limited Edition".

Summary: GK3- possibly best adventure game ever
Review: It's hard to interpret Amazon customer review ratings because half of them seem to be 4-5 stars. GK3, however, is the most groundbreaking and innovative adventure game I have seen. The 3-d exploration of the game is fluid, the graphical details of the characters are precise and eerily human with great attention paid to facial expressions, accurate lip movement with speech. There's almost no "generic non-player characters". Each one seems to have their own goals, personality, and idiosyncratic mannerisms. Knowing that there are a lot of low quality adventure games out there selling for $40, the level of depth and detail in this game actually makes this game worth $80-100. A lot of puzzles here with new action twists. Hiding around corners at the right time. Sneaking into hotel rooms while the maid is cleaning. It's a lot of depth compared to the old "find object, use object" mode of older games, though this game has those elements as well. But the great graphics engine, doesn't impress nearly as much as the story Jensen (game's creator) tells. Apparently obtained through research via travels in France, the plot is as intricate, spooky and quasi- realistic as any plot you'll see in an adventure game. It's X-files gone gothic. If you like adventure games, then you can't go wrong with this selection. If you only want to play one adventure game in 1999, choose GK3. There's no other game out there that tries this hard for depth...and succeeds.

Summary: Delivers a thrilling ride worth the wait!
Review: I have been a follower of the GK mysteries eversince it's conception. I was one of the persons who have been regularly logging on the Sierra website for the past two years waiting for the development in GK3. I was always patient cause I know quality will never be sacrificed. I tell you YOU WON'T BE DISSAPOINTED! It DELIVERS, a THRILLING RIDE which encompassed WIT and HUMOR. I give Tim Curry 11/10 in doing GK once again. Once more I remove my hat off to Jane, GREAT JOB!

Summary: Gabriel Knight is the greatest
Review: I have always been the biggest fan of Gabriel Knight and his mysteries...I can say with confidence that this is the freakiest, creepiest, most enigmatic, story-driven, plot-twisted, intriguing, provocative, powerful, game of the series...perhaps of all adventure games! This game's graphics are nothing short of incredible and the sound & voices are acted out very well. The animation & sheer size of this beast account for the perfection that it stands for & why it is the best adventure of all time...do yourself a favor, buy this game now! It's 100% in my book!

Summary: Great niche gaming fun
Review: Gabriel Knight has been a highlight of the Sierra titles since the first game came out years ago. BotS, BotD continues that tradition in a fully rendered 3-D environment that lets the player become immersed in the scenes of the crimes that truly adds to the fun of being an investigator of the paranormal. Though the puzzles can be weird at times (getting cat hair with scotch tape to make a fake moustache), and the locals French accents get annoying, you'll love the story, adore the characters, and start to hope that a GK4 comes out very soon.

Summary: Wonderful story and characters
Review: I was sorry to end the game -- you get very attached to the characters, and the historical background is fascinating. I liked the video in GK2 and would have to say that the villain there doesn't have an emotional equivalent here, but Grace gets to play an even more important role. Music is great, and there are lots of Easter eggs and humor as well.
If you are a religious Christian, you may not want to buy the game; the ending has the potential to offend.
I am truly sorry that GK4 appears to be unlikely, I would by it in a heartbeat.
