It is Wimli, the UK version was called 'journey to the moon'.

I sort of enjoyed myst and a bit of Riven, I was almost ready to see why people labelled them the best adventure games ever - until that statue puzzle in Riven. It was so ludicrously hard and took so ludicrously long to come even close to the solution, I eventually just gave up on the game and the rest of the Myst series, even though I'd bought it.

Games like Journey to the Moon/Mysterious Island (although MI had a stuck bug in it unfortuantely) are much closer to what I thought drew everyone into myst, beautiful worlds and interesting puzzles, not illogical and unforgiving ones.
