Rocks of Ages 3: Make & Break isn't a great game but also it is not a bad game! This is not the best product of ACE Team but it's capable of entertaining the fans. Simple but effective issues might bother newcomers but if you have played previous Rocks of Ages, these issues can not annoy you.

Rock of Ages 3: Make and Break offers a very different experience in terms of world design and atmosphere, and an entertaining -yet nothing too special- gameplay. It's not a game for everybody, but if you happen to have the right group of people gathered around, you'll have a great time with it.

There's nothing else quite like Rock of Ages out there. It's a mesh of things that shouldn't work together, and that's why I suspect no one else has tried to replicate the mad genius of ACE Team's work.

There's nothing wrong with a little weirdness and quirk and I've been very pleased that the Switch has delivered quite a bit in that vein over its lifespan...

The third title in the Rock of Ages series differs from its predecessors by bringing new game modes, boulder styles and items to defend your tower, as well as the creation mode for you to put all your creativity into practice and challenge other players. The campaign is fun with the comic cutscenes inspired by Monty Python and has many challenging moments, but the way the challenges are structured makes it fall into a repetition that does not encourage playing for hours in a row.

Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break is ACE Team’s third game in their tower defence/arcade hybrid series. As a fan of the sequel, I was very eager to review Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break. Does this third entry into the series build upon the previous games?

I have mixed emotions with Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break. There are nagging technical issues and the game design incorporates a game genre I despise, but I can’t deny how much fun I had with most of it. I got about six hours of entertainment out of the single player campaign alone, close to an hour of which was me begrudgingly playing the modes more focused on tower defense. $30 might be a bit much if you’re like me and aren’t as into the tower defense aspects of the game. If it goes on sale though, go right ahead and be prepared to rock and/or roll.

Nihil novi sub sole is a perfect summary of Rock of Ages 3. Make & Break had a chance to become an ultimate Rock of Ages game with its map creator, but the lack of any major changes, a rather boring protagonist, and a terrible Switch version made this experience a quite boring and often even a frustrating one.

History has never been as fun as in Rock of Ages 3. Everything will be rolled and we will discover another point of view from the beginning of time.

Rock of Ages 3: Make and Break is not a bad game by any stretch, but what was once a promising, unique idea is itself beginning to feel somewhat rote. The game looks great and runs very well, and playing it is absolutely a fine experience, I just never really felt the pull to keep going and had to dig to find the fun in all of it. It may just be series fatigue, and the fact that I played Rock of Ages 2 a little over a year ago, but for all that Rock of Ages 3 adds to its own pantheon of tricks, it doesn’t quite go far enough for me to eagerly recommend it, which is a shame because it may be the most robust offering in the series yet. There’s definitely joy to be found here, but only for the right person who either really loves Rock of Ages, or somebody who’s been waiting for just the right time to jump in.

WORTH CONSIDERING - Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break brings with it a create-a-level mode as the centerpiece. For me, the Story Mode was still the heart of the game, but it’s borderline frustratingly difficult with a combination of too many obstacles, precise AI opponents that are just too good, and grueling courses. The classic storytelling and graphic animation styles were still present, but playing the game on the Nintendo Switch also brought some system quirks with it too. For fans of the series, there’s still something here to have fun with, but I felt like the original game ultimately brought me more joy.

Rock of Ages 3 doesn’t break new ground nor reinvent itself as it suffers from some of its previous shortcomings like its repeatability. But this can be alleviated by its multiplayer mode and user-created tracks or your own routes. This is the best title for new players interested in this franchise and there isn’t anything like it on the market.
