The sudden surge in Myst-style adventures of late shows no signs of slowing down, as yet another new puzzle-adventure game has recently been released called Monumental.

In Monumental, a five-person team of researchers were "studying an ancient monument from a long-extinct alien civilization" when they mysteriously disappeared. As the player, it is now your task to follow in their foosteps, entering the monument in order to locate the missing team and in the process, "uncover the astonishing final secret of a long-dead alien race."

Rather than a slideshow-style adventure, Monumental is a free-roaming, realtime 3D journey through a variety of unusual environments. Along the way, you will use a number of different tools to solve the "numerous" puzzles you encounter.

Perhaps the best news of all is that the game is already available, having just launched on Steam, excusively for PC.
