Puzzles can be very difficult and bizarre, often requiring strange inventory mixing and illogical, humorous solutions. The world and plot is also bizarre and full of humor. Similar to Monkey Island in this way. You can also die quite easily, making frequent and layered game-saving a must. Generally good entertainment and some decent puzzles mixed with mazes. However, prepare to spend most of your time collecting and combining random inventory items.

Pure puzzle game. Not nearly as captivating as Myst. No plot, and scenes are rather bland. However, puzzles are very good. Completely non-linear and NO inventory collecting or screen-hunting; just pure logic and experimentation.
