Surreally immersive
Graphics, ambient sounds, music, real actors playing. It was my second game on the PC, so I was hypnotized by the graphics, and the surreal ambients that the game creates. It showed how far computer graphics could be in a game. And thre's too the ambient music, always fitting right. The highlight Ages were Achenar's prision and Sirenia. Sirenia was great, with all the strange effects, and the bubbles.
The gameplay is different from several point-and-click games. You could rotate, and there's much more interaction than other games of the genre.
Overally, the best and sole point-and-click game I ever played. I don't like any other point-and-click games, besides Myst series, especially this, Myst IV. Even if someone isn't a point-and-click fan, this game deserves a look.
