An amazing set of games. Myst and Riven always captured my imagination and I spent hours and hours playing them back when they first came out. Obduction was a really cool throwback, too. Glad to see the series getting the attention it deserves with newer gamers.
Yeah, I get you, it’s just a very highly stylized game that felt similar. My now wife and I played it together in college. To this day we still say “HALT” at each other like that robot in the beginning did.

Have you played Machinarium?
Yes. I would say it was a good game but my heart really belongs to the old school pre-rendered environments and FMV cutscenes.
Did you ever play Grim Fandango? It was up there with Myst for me, although also very funny.
Grim Fandango (and Monkey Island) are definitely staples of the genre.

Also a great soundtrack.
Interesting that I don’t see Firmament mentioned. Is it just too new to be in this bundle?
It’s been released two months ago, it would be really weird to put it on such a deep discount so soon.
