Do Cleopatra first. It is delightful, and it is really elegant.
One of my abiding studies all my life has been Ancient Egypt.
This game perhaps matches Liz Taylor's Cleopatra for acurate sets and costumes.
Greek period. I was dazzled at the care KHEOPS took with this game !
This game is a keeper, as an example of a game done RIGHT

And Voyage has the same care, albiet HG Wells/Victorian Tech.

About the mouse? Har ! Someone asked !

I use a trackball, rather than a mouse. It is leaps ahead of a mouse in these games, for moving and pointing. I never learned to handle a mouse, and it's pretty funny to see me on a strange computer, thrashing clumsily about with the mouse. I always viewed the mouse as a clever invention that was never finished. It was like the scroll wheel and the 3rd button were patches. It takes most of your arm to operate a mouse, 2 fingers for the ball. Plus it needs next to no real estate. I installed a Myst on another machine, and found I was like a drunk person trying to move around in it with ye mouse.
Cheers

Is anybody out there playing Myst 4 Revalation?
Chin-wag?
