Question
I have played the Diskworld games, Monkey Island games, CSI 1 and 2, Syberia 1 and 2. I like the puzzel solving games where you don't have to shoot, and don't die. But I'm quite new to the whole gaming thing, so I don't realy know where to find similar games. So my question is: can you recogmend any games that are like the above mentioned games? the more the better! thanks in advanse for any help you might be able to give me. Monique

Answer
Hello,

Here's a list of my favorites:

The Longest Journey
the Myst series (Myst, Riven, & Exile)
Reah
Beyond Atlantis
Sanitarium

Here are some other great games where in some rare cases, you can die.  However they're adventure games with great stories & lots of puzzles.  They're not action/shooter games:

Riddle of the Sphinx & its sequel, the Omega Stone
Dracula Resurrection & Dracula Last Sanctuary
Gabriel Knight 3

I hope this helps,
Meg

Expertise

I can help with most Adventure games from small hints to complete walkthroughs. I`ve finished/beat all the popular games including Myst, Riven, and the Gabriel Knight series without help. New games are added to my list often. **Sorry, I am not a computer expert, so technical advice is rarely given. Please visit the manufacturer`s web-site for tech support.**
