Monster Hunter Stories is a spin-off subseries of the Monster Hunter brand, initiated in 2017. In contrast to the main series, which emphasizes dynamic battles with monsters, the titles under this banner focus on storytelling. Although combat is present in them, it takes the form of turn-based skirmishes. Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is the third installment in the sub-series. It was developed and published by the Japanese company Capcom.

Gameplay

In Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection the action is viewed from a third-person perspective (TPP). During the game we explore a fantasy land, get to know the inhabitants of the game world and engage in conversations with them, as well as perform quests for them. In this way, we gradually push the story forward.

Gameffine: 97 / 100 by Uphar Dutta

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is an undeniably fun and instantly addictive turn-based title based on the world of Monster Hunter. This title follows a unique storyline with the ability to raise dragons and restore the natural balance of their presence in the entire world. The open world gives a lot of opportunities to be lost for hours exploring, but the story is well delivered to keep you hooked until the end

Game8: 78 / 100 by Alfonso Majarucon

Monster Hunter Stories 3 feels like a prematurely released game that could have been truly great. It’s got everything from the series’ signature monster collecting mechanics, the gritty turn-based combat, and much, much better audiovisuals than its predecessors. Unfortunately, beyond the bloat of grinding for stronger monsters and watching filler, there’s not much content to actually engage in.
