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.

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.

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.

Also a great soundtrack.

Did you ever play Grim Fandango? It was up there with Myst for me, although also very funny.

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.
