I originally played this game back when I had my old Win 98 system, and I loved it....Kept the CD;won't part w/ it. The graphics were good (for it's time) and the storyline all meshed together nicely. The puzzles were imaginative-not too hard, not too easy. Unfortunately, it DOES NOT run on XP, so the only way to play it is to install Win. 98/ME on another drive or partician yours off and install one of those older OS's on it to play.....I wish someone would buy the rights to that game (since the company who made it no longer exists) so that it can be updated to run on XP. If anyone out there has access to an old OS, likes RP games & doesn't mind older graphics....I HIGHLY recommend this one.

Amber: Journeys Beyond--a tight and self-contained ghost story--begins when you visit a fellow scientist named Roxy. An avid paranormal researcher, Roxy has chosen her new home because she believes it is haunted. Using a host of unreliable detection devices, she plans to use this house as a laboratory. Her goal: proving the existence of psychic phenomena.Driving out to the house in a thunderstorm, you are run off the road by a shimmering apparition and are sent crashing into a lake. In short order, you discover other things have gone wrong--Roxy is in the garage, apparently dead. It's up to you to save yourself and the overzealous scientist from the forces lurking in the house.Patience and close attention to detail are musts for playing Amber: Journeys Beyond. Critical items are sometimes hard to spot, and one or two of the scenes take place in very dark locales. When you can see, the graphics are crisp and drawn with a faint gothic sensibility, surrounding the player in a milieu of creepy sounds and ghost-catching gadgets.The game is especially suited to beginning or younger gamers, as the problem-solving challenges are on the simple side. Even so, Amber: Journeys Beyond is spooky and engaging, a worthy electronic heir to campfire stories everywhere. Alyx Dellamonica
