Hi Lotus777,
You have listed one game twice - circle of blood and shadow of the templars are the same.
Want to change one??

Hi all, There are only 2 votes in it for most recommended at the moment, with Syberia just ahead of TLJ. Series votes sees the original Myst the most favoured in that series, the first Broken Sword leading the way, and GK2 narrowly edging GK1. 11 seperate Nancy Drew games have been mentionedand recent releases are doing well. Notable ommissions thus far might include Shadow of Memories, Dark Fall 2, Realms of the Haunting and of course .... The Scroll

Heidi, you listed Mysterious Journey 2 - Schizm.
The makers confused everyone with these titles; only the Atlantis series was more muddled.
In any event, Schizm was the original game and number two was Chameleon. So can you post here (don't edit, I might miss it) and let me know which one you meant?
