mysterious journey 2 much work, not enough inbetweens., 2008-04-11
This has very good problems to solve. I just felt they were a little too close together. I like to do more exploring and information gathering than this one offers. I loved Schizm.
I havn't finished the game yet but I will finish it none the less.
I enjoy the games regardless.

 Uh, Barf!!, 2008-02-17
I just installed this game and played it for 5 minutes and I literally want to throw up. The graphics are awesome and the game looks like it would be really fun, if it weren't for the 1st person navigation system. This full 360 degree viewing is totally gross. it's like you are inside a sphere, and when you move the mouse the sphere rolls the screen around, so every single thing you want to look at requires the entire screen to move, at a disgusting rate. i slowed the mouse movement down as far as it would go but it was still like i was on a rollercoaster. Have you ever seen clockwork orange? you know how they forcefeed the guy images to cure him and he freaks out, well that's how i felt after 5 seconds of game play. 15 minutes later now, and i still have motion sickness. give me still images please!!
Horrible!!!! Bad puzzles, doesn't make sense, really uninteresting, 2008-02-06
I just don't see how anyone could like this game. The puzzles make little sense, and the game just didn't interest me at all.
It starts off in an ugly, dark spaceship, and by the time I FINALLY got out of that level I was VERY ready to move on. But instead of taking me to a level with something interesting to look at and interact with (which is the ENTIRE reason I bought the game, for the beautiful backdrops), it plops me into another uninteresting level with a bunch of weird pods and laser lights.
The game never gave me any clue as to what I was doing or more importantly WHY I was doing it. I had no interest in any of the EXTREMELY difficult puzzles, and I ended up just wanting to get the heck out of the game,
I read one reviewer's comment (who was a mathematician), and he said some of the puzzles were even difficult for him!
I will never buy any more Mysterious Journey games. They just aren't worth it.

I am not a good review writer. As a fan of adventure game I found this game to be excellent!

 MEH..., 2007-12-15
If you grew up on Myst and Riven, you will be disappointed. The graphics are ok, the music is ok, but I can deal with sucky graphics or music if the story and puzzles are worth it. Sadly, while the puzzles are somewhat tough and interesting, they are all separate and not really related to the actual story. They are just there to be there. You figure one out, you move on. Not like Riven and Myst where almost all the parts of the game connect with each other, and everything adds to or advances the main plot.
Speaking of which, while the plot in Mysterious Journey has POTENTIAL to be interesting, the writing and voice overs are so corny that it falls flat.
I have been searching for a game that can stand up to the Myst series ever since (sadly) UbiSoft decided not to make anymore. This one isn't it. However, if you are REALLY REALLY bored, it will amuse you for a while. Just buy it used so you don't waste your money.
