Aren't precocious kids irritating? I always liked to let her fireflies (or whatever the hell they were) out of the case just to annoy her.

For me, Riven is the gameplay masterpiece of the Myst series (it took me a long time but i finished it without a walkthrough... yes, that's an irrelevent brag) and Myst IV is the story-telling masterpiece.

By the way, you're list of all-time favourite games in your signature is very similar to mine.
