Well, Syberia, from Microids, has pretty much what you'd expect from an adventure game: grapchis are excellent, sound is thrilling, sountracks are minimum but appropriate and set the mood of the game very well. The protagonist is a female not-so-pretty-but-still-a-looker character, whose real, normal life gets turned upside down when something goes horribly wrong... and these are just what a good adventure needs... But even though Syberia can be touted as one of the best adv. games anyone's ever played, it does have a few issues. The game involves a lot of running around, and unlike the lost journey, Syberia doesn't allow you to use the ESCAPE key to skip frames. Also, when you reload a game and want to finish quests or whatever along the way, those things won't be available when specific conditions for those items have been met. The game is really frustrating this way. Syberia doesn't have too many missions, no matter how long they might be, so it feels that the game ends a little too soon. If you're willing to force yourself to look beyond these factors, Syberia is a good game, one that will not leave you disappointed. The game doesn't have much replay value; it's a one-time gig, but you can still try it out for yourself if you wish...
