I've only played Syberia so far; it can be an emotionally moving experience and is very beautiful, but you may be disappointed by the 'emptiness' of the gameworld in terms of what you're allowed to do in it. The game suffers from lack of interactivity (where the character usually comments or examines things).

But from people here I heard that Still Life is quite good, though there are some complaints about its puzzle design and general execution. But I played to demo, and I love its look and style so I plan on getting the full game if only for that.

Why not do it chronologically and get Syberia first, then Still Life?
