Testimonials from players of Riddle of the Sphinx
Hey, kudos to the Toblers – great job on ROTS – worth waiting for. I’ve been a graphic adventure gamer for years, but this is the first one I’m playing completely with my 5 year old son and he’s absolutely loving it! Every evening he asks to play and during the scary parts he curls up in my lap – great fun! Not enough quality adventures for Mac these days … thanks for the hard work!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed your game. There are 4 criteria that make up a good game, in my opinion: 1)Graphics 2)plot 3)length 4)ending I find that it is hard to find adventure games that do well in all of these areas, yours went above and beyond. Thanks for making such an enjoyable game. The ending led us to hope that you may have plans for sequel, is this correct?

I have no idea where this Email will end up, but I figured what the heck. Anyway, I just finished playing ROTS. MAN I LOVED IT!!! It was everything I have been looking for in a game (there have been many) since I finished Myst and Riven. I guess I am writing because I loved it so much I want Jeff & Karen Tobler (and friends) to know they have got a new fan in me, so what if I am only a bored housewife and mother. Whether or not this message gets to them, I had to try. Oh, and I wanted to say that I hope there will be a sequel. But either way thanks webmaster@omnicreative for listening (reading)!

Really a beautiful game, wonderfully constructed, and not to hard, so that the inexperienced gamester can get gratification from solving the challenging, but rational puzzles. Enjoyed it immensely.

Well first let me tell you a great game. I really like the sound, graphics, and the 3D perspective. Great !!!! It sure is challenging to find everything.

ps: all those who have not finished, read the hints they give you for they are very helpful, plus my own hint- Stop, Look and Think.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to write back. That was very cool. I have a great deal of respect for you and your wife also. When I was reading the credits for your ROTS (yes I actually like the game enough to read all of the credits) I loved the fact that I kept seeing the same last names over and over. I thought it was great that you and Karen knew what you wanted and did it. I can’t even imagine how difficult it was. My husband can do anything when it comes to computers and I can build anything. But that is putting together something someone else made. You two actually made it. I am very glad for you. Anyway I am rambling and I have already taken up WAY too much of your time. I wish you both further success and all the best of luck.Take care,

I just wanted to let you know I have finished the game and I really loved the game. I will probably play again as the graphics were outstanding. Again, thanks for a great game.

I just finished Riddle of the Sphinx. It was an amazing game. The puzzles are hard enough to keep you challenged and not so hard that you get so frustrated that you quit. I started playing adventure games when MYST was released and have found very few beyond RIVEN, RAMA, and Timelaps that have been as unique and captivating as MYST. You have done it with ROTS. The resolution was excellent, the story line superb, the puzzles challenging, and the ending extremely satisfying. I admit that I did review the hint comments from other players on ROTS-Talk who were having similar difficulties. The suggestions given were excellent and did not give the puzzles away. You still had to think for yourself to complete the task. Congratulations to the designers and thank you very much for creating an exciting, thought provoking, absorbing, and wonderful adventure game. I, among the other players eagerly await a sequel. In the mean time, I think I will play the game again! ,and again!

I can’t believe I just finished ROTS! Couldn’t have done it without all of your help. I haven’t enjoyed a video game so much since Myst. Thanks so much – See you on the next game (sounds like there will be a sequel).
