have to say that this is one of the best console adventure games in the last few years. Some will quibble about a few of the puzzles and others will point out that the shadows (although real-time) are more like dark blobs, but they are missing the best parts of this game. The voice work is wonderful, the plot is simple but compelling, and the fast-paced action sequences are refreshing. It doesn’t have the story or graphics of a Myst title, but it might be a little speedier and more accessible to those on the fence about adventure games.
