I'm not sure if this counts, but Geneforge is pretty good.

Thats more of a retro rpg. I'm talking about games like riven or still life.

Real Myst is better though. Rhiannon is interesting.

Grim Fandango was very good, if you can get past the dated controls.

Loom was amazing. So were pretty much all old school Sierra and Lucas Arts games.

Ahh, Myst and Riven... Yes, yes, interesting old games they were... I think they kinda lost the original vibes around myst 4/5 though...

Real Myst is fun, I didn't play much of Riven I had problems running it on xp.

I never could Quite Figure out the Logic needed to play Myst.
In the Demo of real Myst (back When I had a mac) I figured out that There was a Teliscope on the Top of the level, a Tower that gose into the sea with a Chest in it, The Chest itself had a Nozzle on it like a keg that drained water. there was A Room that gose down a set of stairs, there is a tabble down the bottom. There is nothing else to the best of my knowledge down there other than allot of under water scenery.

There was yet another Two rooms that you must go to though one of two corridors, connected by a secrit passage, there is something you can manipulate there, but I dont know what its for. There is what looks like a bed Room an a Study, in the study there is a Hologram that you can turn into a scull, some map, And I think a Torn Document. In the Bed room I think there is a document but I cant be sure if Im thinking of the one in he Study.

You could only go to one of these 3 Destinations at a time, because you had to press some button while walking allong 2 or 3 planks of wood.

Maybe Im over thinking it... :(
