Agent 47 signs off with killer finale

Hitman 3 Various ⚪⚪⚪⚪⚫

Hitman 3 doesn’t stray too far from its predecessors but manages to maintain excitement as the World Of Assassination trilogy reaches a fitting conclusion.

The story of Agent 47 and his handler Diana Burnwood’s pursuit to take down evil secret society Providence is sown together nicely, staying true to previous principals: patience and disguise.

There are new elements thrown in, such as a camera to hack items, but the main marvel is the six deep, new maps, ranging from the world’s tallest building in Dubai to a UK country manor.

Each contains so much to explore and complete, with the chance to go back and work for new weapons and disguises.

Seems sad to say farewell to Agent 47 but all good things come to an end and this is a closure that does the series justice.

Meanwhile, with no apparent story and a first-person view, The Pillar: Puzzle Escape offers a simple but varied range of puzzles designed to soothe rather than infuriate. By that, we mean the puzzles aren’t all that challenging — but that’s fine, it works.

Equally acceptable are basic yet impressionable graphics as you explore each level. Prepare to see grids, blocks and lines aplenty but don’t expect it to last long as it plays out for just a few short hours, leaving us longing for more.

The pressure is off in The Pillar: Puzzle Escape and rightly so. Puzzles don’t always have to be long head-scratchers and it works well in this case.

End of the trilogy Hitman 3 really hits the mark
