the Myst trilogy (Myst, Riven and Exile), Crystal Key and Schizm...I LOVE these kinds of games. I guess they would be called "adventure games", I'm not sure of the exact term...
Anyway, does anyone else like these puzzly games, and if so, any to recommend?

"The Cosmology of Kyoto", incredible obscure but inspirational game set in ancient kyoto... learn all about zen buddhism and shinto but risk finding yourself in "interminable hell" arrrgh

i believe the correct term is "point 'n click adventure".....?
i also am a fan of the genre, next to RPGs, Adventure/Action, and Fighter/Strategy/Puzzle....

I never got in adventure games, even when I had a speccy - I preferred platform games and racing games :)

There was this super cool Addam's Family game for the NES. I dont care if it was an adventure game or not, it was cool.

REAL adventure games:
Monkey Island 1, 2, 3 (my favorite games of all time. im not counting 4 because i got bored of it and never finished it... just didnt have the same magic as the others did and still do)
Full Throttle (good voice acting and visuals for an older game, great story, its a god damn shame LucasArts pulled the plug on the sequel so late in development... I lost all fucking respect for LucasArts in the past year)
The Longest Journey (this one is pretty new actually, got a really good really deep story and great locations and premise)
Gabriel Knight: Sins of the fathers (this one is GREAT... gabriels a private dick who's looking for info on suspicious voodoo murders during mardi gras... really great story)
-- on the flip side I wouldnt even call MYST or any of its affiliates adventures games at all.... more like puzzle games. They get real boring real fast for me.

does anyone remember 'beneath a steel sky'? probably the first game of this type i played.
Flashback was another awesome game, shame they can't get some of these classics onto the GBA.
