My main problem with
The Dig is that the story pulls too many punches, especially when it comes to the central conflict in the game. The dynamic between the characters is just bland, which doesn't make for a very compelling drama.
The puzzles can't have been very memorable, either, because I don't remember a single one. I do remember having to walk around a lot, so I guess it's a very good thing that it used the "double-click to skip to screen" interaction.
