Problem-solving CD ROMs
 

The last video game system I played with any regularity was the Atari 7800 (couldn't be bothered to practice using these new-fangled controllers) so I turned my attention to PC games. I really enjoy the problem-solving games where you don't risk getting killed at every step. These are my favorites:

Dracula Resurrection
Dracula Last Sanctuary
Riddle Of The Sphinx
Omega Stone
Myst
Riven
Exile
Aura
Syberia
Goosebumps Escape From Horrorland (I know it's for children, but just try collecting all those coins from the trash can monsters!)

What other games of this type are worth playing?

Also love computer game soundtracks (Myst, Riven, Exile, Riddle Of The Sphinx), but I haven't been able to find these:

Schizm Mysterious Journey (Daniel Kleczynski)
The Omega Stone (Jeff Tobler)

Does anyone happen to know where to obtain these?

Some kind soul put the Schizm soundtrack on the web. The song 'The Singing Towers' is just beautiful.

I forgot I had Dracula Resurrection and Dracula Last Sanctuary, and after your post reminded me I dug them out and installed Dracula Last Sanctuary.

Haven't played it in forever, and I'm about 8 minutes into the game and I'm stuck at the house...have no idea what to do,lol. I'm liking playing it again though.

I've played that game more times than I'd like to admit. If you're stuck and want a hand, let me know.

I think I may have to take you up on the help, lol. I keep getting killed in the room after I get the key off of the corpse. Don't know what I'm missing.

I guess I could go to GameFaqs, but I'd rather not have spoilers.

WARNING POSSIBLE SPOILER

I think I know where you're stuck. Try shooting the lock on the door you're standing near, go into the room,then block the door with the chest sitting by the doorway.

Machinarium !!!

OK. Thank you. I'll give that a try. Really liking this game so far:)


I've played that game before. I liked it. I like the visual style of these type of games.

Looks cool.
