    Monkey Island is the best adventure game.

      Yes the first 3 games are really good. But I also have a soft spot for Myst. Maybe it is nostalgia, but I really enjoyed replaying it from the original CD of the Mac release a few years ago (using my original iBook, which is slightly later vintage than the game of course).

        Riven is even better. :-)

          Ah, that is interesting. I found it a bit too confusing puzzle-wise. But I only played it years later, so I don't have the nostalgia. Which suggests that nostalgia probably is a big part of why I still enjoy Myst.
