Remember three decades ago when you were playing Dungeons & Dragons inside the comic book store with your sweaty friends and the owner while I was waiting over the counter to buy my HEX comics? It got pretty funky in there and I was already there for a while but that saving throw and following argument with the DM just couldn't wait.

You don't remember? Alright alright.

How about two decades ago when you were hogging the good characters from the X-Men cabinet at the donut shop arcade with your snot buds? I mean, I still like Cyclops and Dazzler made mini bomber jackets look good before Rogue but sometimes you wanna be Wolverine (or actually in front of the screen instead of the side for a change), y'know?

Oh, you still don't remember!?

Well forget that already, here's something cooler. Let's get that pen and paper and stick it in the punch-n-stab-things-on-the-screen genre and presto, you got a magical stabbing game! You and three other bozos can connect over the intercloud to defeat a powerful wizard on a tower that is mostly definitely, of doom. The cool thing is that every character has unique fighting or magical skills which also affects specific enemy damage effectiveness, like the cleric's ability to dispel the undead or the wizards extensive array of spells. You can also name you character, level up, collect items for later use, pick different path quests, chose your dialogue options, and all while playing with other larpers such as yourself! I know I only play it ironically to make fun of you, so we both get something out of this in the end (just don't touch the elf kiddo).

You also get the sequel here, Myst VI: Shadows Under My Eyes, which gives you a thief class (which you can't touch either) and sets you with another good time. This compilation has a limited credit system so it doesn't take the fun out of the game with unlimited lives and also comes with in-game chievos, so you can replay both games in many different ways and unlock concept art and other goodies along the way. It's just a game that wants you to have a rewarding time with your like-minded friends, just don't throw your lighting bolts on my backyard. Go away, shoo!
