Beyond Good & Evil's a fairly unique action/rpg (not adventure, so don't expect point and click puzzles and no combat!) with very memorable characters, unique travel (by boat), very cute world, good plot, etc. Unfortunately it's unfinished, and the ending is very rushed, and sequels (which it deserved and needed) were never made, which is why it's not a stellar game in my book, but is in a similar category with other unfinished gems like Anachronox, for me. Anyway, it's well worth playing, and the closest comparison would be some of the latter Zelda games, with better writing, similar types of puzzles, and more endearing/quirky characters. Memorable, but it deserved better than being rushed/unfinished/sequels cancelled, etc - but who knows, BG&E 2 might eventually make it out! :)
