If you haven't played Weather Factory's Book of Hours yet, and you love cosmic horror with tons of backstory, then, um, I guess you should play it soon?

Another amazing game! Love the item descriptions. Especially the cat.

On the one hand, this sounds a lot like Myst. On the other hand, I approached Myst thinking I was a decent video game player and ended up wandering for hours not figuring out anything. When I saw some of the — was it brothers’? — videos on YouTube, I was shocked, I could not get ANYWHERE. So the description of this game is deeply intimidating.

OTOH, I’m thinking Pentiment sounds fabulous.

My one suggestion for finding clues you’re missing comes from when I was playing an MMO called “The Secret World” that had the basic premise of “what if all the conspiracy theories and secret societies and Lovecraftian horrors were real?” Anyway, during one of the quest lines, I found the next clue on the ceiling of the room we were fruitlessly searching. So don’t forget to look up!
