Doesn't get any better
I have always considered Riven one of the best made and most entertaining games ever produced :)

“My worst fears have been realized. The damage is more extensive than previously imagined. I must act while there is still time. I must find someone… to send to Riven.”
Enter a deceptively beautiful world torn apart by age-old conflicts, where secrets lie hidden at every turn, and nothing is as it seems. Search through dense jungles, awe-inspiring caverns and monolithic structures. Use your wits and powers of observation to solve devious puzzles and find secretive characters. Only then will you learn the truth about this troubled land and its inhabitants. You must let Riven become your world— before an entire world is lost.
Experience the beauty of Riven, released in 1997, featuring the original point-and-click gameplay style, with almost five thousand images and over three hours of full motion video.

Riven is well worth your time!
You could never tell Riven was made in 1997 because nothing about it has been outdated. Clicking around Riven is very enjoyable to play and explore, every location and screen feels like it had a lot of thought put into it. The audio is very well done; the sound design is top-notch and the soundtrack is great, combine the audio with the shockingly good visuals and animations and Riven becomes a very immersive experience, even if the animations can feel slow at times. Riven is far better than Myst if you ask me, but you should still play Myst. Thanks to a certain Irish YouTube review-man for recomending the Myst series back in 2017.

An Age that never ages!
I played Riven after Obduction, because I was looking for a similar strong experience. I had played RealMyst a couple of years ago. Riven is an awesome game that you can't miss if you are in this kind of adventures. It's unbelievable that this game still looks visually amazing 23 years after its release. Besides the breathtaking landscapes, the Riven is rich in story and the puzzles are absolutely logical, but at the same time very challenging. You have to observe everything very carefully in order to understand what is Riven about. The only flaw is the sometimes frustrating interface, which can make you miss some exits or points of interest.
