What is Brog?

I played the demo for that, EXCELLENT game! I cannot recall why I never bought it, but....

Titanic is wonderful.  I love the whole "what if" idea of the ending...

Another good game, though 3rd person, is Torin's Passage.  Very, very, bizzare, yet oddly entertaining for a cartoon style game.  The whole "Lands Above" song reminded me of some of the wackier Zork moments.

Mac,
A couple games I would recomend are Dracula Resurrection and Dracula The Last Sanctuary.  Two games in a series.  They are pretty creepy/scary, first-person games.  With well-developed stories, challanging, but not real difficult puzzles.  - and great atmosphere.

Also, since you're such a big fan of RTZ, have you played the text game RTZ:Another Story by Stefano Canali?  It is quite good (and even has the mushroom people.)

Ah, I remember Titanic. Very cool. I remember I ended up not finding a picture (or something) fast enough which meant the ending wouldn't come out right, so I got kind of discouraged and stopped playing. Need to pull that one back up.

I am giving Riven a try, will let you guys know how it turns out, so far its pretty cool, but not as much as Nemesis

Thanks for the recommendations, I have been looking at the reviews and might get them soon to kill time...  I am unemployed at the moment
