By all means, this is an excellent game. I managed to complete it. As 
Christian said, the game has it all. It even has the special feeling we 
know from the Myst games. All in all, this is the first pipmak game 
which can really be called a complete game.

One thing that comes to my mind: Running the game in full-screen mode is 
good, but please do not set the resolution. The game looks much better 
on my system if I choose the maximal possible resolution but activate 
interpolation.
