Planning permission received: The Room 3 is under construction

Alone in the dark.

With enough sequels it’ll be like a Motel 6 on Fireproof’s catalog.

In what can only be the year’s least surprising news, Fireproof have announced that The Room 3 is en route. But of course it is. The games industry has classically conditioned the Scottish studio by festooning them with awards every time they make a new installment of their 3D puzzle game franchise. Pavlov would be proud.

The Room 3 coming to iOS in the spring of 2015, with an Android version to follow, Fireproof say, and they’re also making a neat-looking jet-packing game called Omega Agent for Samsung’s newly unveiled VR doohickey. Samsung do love a gimmick but they’ve actually lined up some impressive launch partners for the Samsung Gear VR, which was just announced at IFA a few hours ago.

Fireproof and its head honcho Barry Meade are well worth supporting: he’s one of the good guys taking a stand for good old fashioned “premium” games in this increasingly free-to-play world. You should read Meade’s Polygon editorial on that subject if you haven’t.

There’s no video for The Room 3 yet, so after the jump you’ll find the trailer for The Room 2. You can keep up with Fireproof on Facebook.
