Description official description

After helping the Bunyup Elder by ridding the Dreamtime of the dangerous Quinkan, Ty heads for home. However, something goes wrong, and Ty winds up six months in the future! The Quinkan have invaded Southern Rivers, and even worse, the Bush Rescue team from the previous game has disbanded during Ty's absence! It's up to Ty to reunite his team members, as well as stop the Quinkan from unleashing the mysterious Quinking, an evil being of supreme power.

Night of the Quinkan is the third game in the Ty series. As Ty, players can bite at foes, or use his boomerangs for consecutive ranged attacks. Boomerangs can be customized in an assortment of ways: either by changing the chassis (each chassis has its own special abilities); or by equipping special Bunyip Stones to the boomerang's chassis. Some stones can be combined with others, allowing players to customize their attacks to their liking. Some stones are rewards for completing tasks; others, as well as boomerang chassis, can be purchased from the Rang Shop in exchange for Opals, the game's currency.

Ty 3 again rolls out the robotic mechs - choose from the Shadow or Extreme Bunyip (your standard mech), the Crabmersible (a submarine shaped like a crab, oddly enough), or the Gunyip (a speedy airplane with an assortment of bombs and guns). Ty can even take part in cart races against other characters for powerups and even more opals.

That Marsupial Just Keeps Going Better

The Good
The game looks so much more mature compared to the last two previous one. Again, this game had not lost its well-written storylines, wide range of collectibles, funny lines and everything which makes a platformer look nice and perfect. Best of all, the game doesn't appear too childish now because the characters in the game are all grown up.

The Bad
Still, i'm not too convinced about the dark graphics of this sequel. The game also look too wide and empty so u have go all over the map just to find one thing. This may also scare some of the young gamers because that's some scary creatures in it. Well, u cannot blame everything.

The Bottom Line
The game is so much better than the previous titles. Don't go and believe those reviews saying that this game isn't good because it's underrated. So for all of you platformer gamers, get Ty The Tasmanian Tiger 3 already.
