So, for many years, I have been into playing games on my computer. One of my favorite games is Myst...I am really interested in games where I am solving puzzles/figuring things out, etc. However, lately, I have found it quite challenging to find similar games as Myst...and at the moment, I have no game that I am working on, which is driving me crazy. Thus, I am wondering if anyone around Memestreams knows of any good computer games that are Myst-esque. I am mostly interested in puzzle/adventure games. I really am horrible at playing games involving me having to kill something before it kills me (too stressful) but if you know of any good game, even if it isn't an adventure/puzzle game, let me know about it.

And no...I am not interested in getting sucked into WOW or anything...I do have a PhD to work on after all (which requires actually going to work):)

Played Portal yet? Portal is definately a mind-bender. Hijexx recently beat the game, I messed with it for a while and it's pretty hot, but I went back to my World of Warcraft shortly after. LOL

Another one is not exactly Myst-esque, but it does present itself quite a few challenges, game can be picked up for $10 and it's a rather old game but the graphics are nice. The Longest Journey by Funcom. They have another game along those lines called Dreamfall.
