My wife and I were introduced to adventure video games with MYST, and then worked through the entire MYST franchise. We backed Cyan's Kickstarter Obduction campaign, and eventually worked through that game. In looking for something similar, while waiting for Cyan's next game (Firmament), I stumbled upon Quern. We agree that Quern is an amazing and beautiful game. The game is set in an intricate world of interesting buildings, machines, and natural objects. To find your way through this world, you must solve LOTS of puzzles of different types. We found some of the puzzles quite easy, and some more challenging. We played the game without any walkthrough help, but a few of the puzzles took us a while to figure out -- worth the wait to solve a puzzle, and to make something interesting and/or surprising happen. We highly recommend this game, and thank the developers for their using their imagination and skill to create it.
