I think Oscar was vey important in the story, and Trep wrote a beautiful essay (Life and Death on Rails) that had a very good explanation of the part he played in it. I love it in Syberia that all characters are metaphors.
Yes, Syberia is a work of art, the only novelesque game I played, and, though many might disagree, played a very important part in the evolution of gaming.
