Just how do you actually solve Riven-style puzzles? I was fine with Myst(and I'm a big Myst fan), and (not wishing to boast) am fairly smart, but Riven seemed to me absurdly obscure;

Spoiler:
Wasn't there a bit where you had to recognise that a little ball looked like the eye of a frog in a rock formation that looked nothing like a frog? And a bit where you had to figure out the grid positions of 7 of those big domes on a little holograph device? That was just masochism. I did however, like the way all the puzzles fitted together into one puzzle, but I think Amateria in Myst 3 did it much more elegantly.


Can someone tell me how they solve stuff like this?
