Petka 3 - The Return Of Alaska in English!

Petka 3 -  The Return of Alaska is a Russian adventure game developed by Saturn Plus and published by Buka Entertainment in 2001. It's the third installment of the most famous Russian adventure game series, with the last one, Petka 9 - Proletariat Glamor, being released in 2009. Unfortunately, like most of Russian adventure games, it was never released in English.

This patch converts the Russian retail release of the game to an English one. The voices, obviously, still remain in Russian, but everything else has been translated into English.

I bought my copy from the Russian electronic store www.Kniga.ru which is one of the few who ship video games outside Russia.

To install this patch unpack the archive to the game directory and run the executable, choosing yes when asked to replace the files.

You can download the patch here.

I also wrote an English walkthrough which can be found here.

And don't forget, F1 brings up the map!

Enjoy!
