Oh man, this is a really nostalgic game for me
Oh man, this is a really nostalgic game for me. During my 12th birthday, my aunt came to visit me from Portugal and brought with her a couple of gifts, but one in particular was the 'special' gift for my birthday. At the time I had been bugging the ♥♥♥♥ out of my parents to buy me Battlefield 1942 and I was damn sure that that is what my 'special' gift was. I could barely sleep the night before knowing that Im going to be playing BF1942. The day comes and when I vehemently tore the wrapping paper apart, Battlefield 1942 was not to be seen. In its place I see 'Syberia'... What the f*** is this? Syberia?....by Benoit Sokal? ..Is this a book or something? She told me that she heard I liked computer games so she bought me that before coming to America. I thanked her but deep inside an unearthly rage started to boil. I didn't even play it for a couple days because of how disappointed I was. It wasn't until I had to stay home from school because of a really bad flu that I installed it and gave it a bash. The story, the animations, graphics, art, and theme instantly grabbed me. The sound design was the first thing I noticed when I became instantly immersed with the pattering of rain on the window pane and the soles of your shoes walking along hardwood floors of the inn. The puzzles arn't that complex but really solidify the theme of automatons and cogs and gears of machines. I'm currently playing through it again and its such a nostalgia trip which makes it hard to recommend since I already knew what I was getting into. However, I have no problems saying this is my favorite point and click and one of my favorite games of all time. Make yourself some tea, wrap yourself in a warm blanket and enjoy every moment of this atmospheric masterpiece.

Are you annoyed by Kate's slow pace?
Are you annoyed by Kate's slow pace? Do you want to smash your face against your monitor every time you have to go through a long distance twice, or thrice, because of some minor mistake? Are you interested in being able to admire the beautiful scenery without losing five minutes for no reason? Rejoice, there is a way to avoid all that! We are proud to present you the "double click"! Double-clicking is for you! Double click the sh!t out of everything, make Kate run and enjoy this beautiful game. Brought to you by someone who discovered far too late in the game that Kate can run! -I love this game. It stood the test of time. I think I enjoyed it more than when I first played it back in 2005, but it might be because of that double-click thingie.

I had to purchase this game so that I could reccomend it. This is bar none, (sorry sam and max) my favorite adventure game I have ever played. It is beyond immersive, albeit somewhat slow paced. You may find yourself stuck from time to time and trying old odds and ends to try and progress the story, but my word. The time I spent on this game in my Dad's apartment.
