Site Changes

Lately I have been on a bit of a puzzle kick. My friend Wane Theisis came over earlier this week for Spring Break and we played some Resident Evil 4. So far not too many puzzles, but a great game none-the-less. I then found a game online that I had totally forgotten about: Crimson Room. It's basically a flash based puzzle game where you escape the room you mysteriously awoke in. There are various follow-ups such as Veridian Room, White Chamber, and Blue Chamber, but Crimsons a good place to start. You can find the main page for all the games in the source.

And, I believe I will be making a Escape the Room game myself, if I don't lose motivation/forget about it.

So what are some of your favourite puzzle games? Oddworld? Myst? Perplex City? MOTAS, the start of the ETR genre? Or something nobody's heard of? Alright now discuss, but no spoilers!

Some helpful hints:
Don't just click an object once; sometimes multiple clicks shake things loose.
Even though you've clicked an area, it doesn't mean you've hit exactly where you need to. I found this particularly frustrating in Crimson Room, but the hit detection spots are limited in most cases. Try every square inch.
And nice to see a comment, I've not been here in WEEKS and it's my damn site.
