Astonished that a game of this caliber could be produced…

By Riddle of the Sphinx Testimonials, Testimonials No Comments

I am utterly astonished that a game of this caliber could be produced in even a lifetime of work, even given todays technology. Each and every area to explore is rich in detail, thought provoking, and original. The play area is vast and yet not repetitious. The puzzles were challenging, but logical and not impossible. Jeff and Karen, thank you so much for taking the time to produce this one of a kind game. I spent long nights for a week playing and enjoyed every single moment. In my mind this game even surpasses Myst and Riven due to the sheer area of exploration, and because it is based on factual history. I might even say it is the best video game ever produced (especially since I like these type of adventure games). This price charged seems insignificant and I hope you are rewarded for your time by a large number of sales. God bless the two of you for offering a nonviolent game of this quality.

I’m not unpacking yet….

I just finished the game. All I can say is…. I’m speechless. Words cannot describe the amount of pleasure i’ve had with this game. It’s all very fascinating. One can only wonder what’s going to be awaiting us in the sequel. Lost City of Atlantis? Hehe, won’t be lost after we find it after what happened with this game Mayans? Cool, I don’t think we know very much about them. Stonehenge? Who did this belong to and why is it there in the middle of nowhere? Stonework almost like the Sphinx. Easter Island? Does have some sort of connection to Stonehenge, but we still don’t know who it belonged to. I want to find out. Bermuda? Well, I think we know a bit about them, but that means we only know about the Egyptians and the Bermudians … if that’s the way you call them. If we’re going to travel to all these other places in the sequel, then I’m not unpacking yet.

Eagerly waiting in anticipation…

I have played many adventure games over the past several years from Myst, Riven, and Beyond Atlantis to Lighthouse, Legacy of Time, and Zork. But this adventure game is one of the best (maybe the best) “adventure” I have ever played. The best part for me was after having played the game, to have my five year-old son, Patrick, sit on my leg eagerly waiting in anticipation what was going to happen next in the pyramid. He said it was the best “Patrick-Daddy game” he has ever played. I was also amazed at the accuracy of the Great Pyramid. If in the future you might need a father and son team to test your new adventures, please feel free to drop me a line. Peace…

Didn’t want to turn it off…

My daughter and I played this game together and had a blast!  We stared the game after Christmas and when we got stuck, there wasn’t anyone helping online yet; but with a little persistance we stuck it out & won.  I thought the sights and sounds were great and I was pulled in to the game thoroughly.  Didn’t want to turn it off.
