I love "The 7th Guest" and apparently a PART II is coming for it soon, so better finish this one. It is full of puzzles/mindteasers as you go through a deranged toy-maker's house trying to solve all the puzzles to get out. Great game. If you like that sort of thing, "Myst" is great too. In "T7G" you move around like you normally do while walking, however with "Myst" you click where you want to go, and you instantly appear there. This is because of the mass amount of information on that particular disk. I like "T7G" better. If you like action games, check out "Commanche CD" which is the enhanced CD version of a popular helicopter shoot-em-up game with extra missions. On a similar note, you can also get "Wolfpack CD" which I have had since April 19 but have only played it a few times, as I haven't gotten the hang of it, and haven't sat down with the owner's manual yet. -- Robert Klimkiewicz, Jr. George Mason University rklimkie@mason1.gmu.edu
