Riven (1997)

Magic continues with Riven

If Myst was mysterious, Riven was downright mesmerizing. It took everything to another level—bigger, more detailed, and even more challenging. The handcrafted environments felt alive, with creatures moving in the distance and a world that felt like it had its own history.

I remember getting completely lost (more than once) and being amazed by the intricate puzzles and lore. It was one of those games where patience was rewarded, and solving a tough puzzle felt like uncovering a secret hidden in time.
