Definitely one for Myst-heads, but for the rest of us, this 'puzzle' genre of games has some nice points but equally some annoying ones. For the nice points, it is very Myst like, looks good for a 2004 game, and has a strong emphasis on puzzles. For the annoying points, you spend the first 2-3 hours of play trying to solve puzzles that simply cannot be because the order is wrong, andDefinitely one for Myst-heads, but for the rest of us, this 'puzzle' genre of games has some nice points but equally some annoying ones.

Again like Myst, I felt I glided through the game, separate to it, not acting as a character in the game.
