 Sequel to an Egyptian Riddle, Megalithic? No Kidding June 28, 2007
Long and ardous, intrigueing history, of a continuation that was quite difficult to play. Only because the riddles included a bit of logical insight in each undertaking; try The Omega Stone on for size. The graphics and insight are greatly improved. If you do get lost on where to go though, don't forget that Dreamcatcher Games has strategy books for these riddle games that confuse the unwary of a riddle's complexity. Music though sounded better, and tricks more dire.

I bought the first game in this series of two, "Riddle of the Sphinx" (Which I enjoyed very much by the way) and then I bought this game, "The Omega Stone". I liked this game very much because it is very realistic and it looks more like your really there than a 3D game. I also liked it becasue i'm very interested in ancient civilizations. You are able to visit 6 locations in this game; Chichen Itza (a Maya city), Giza Plateau (in Egypt), Stonehenge, Easter Island, the underwater ruins of Atlantis, and the Bermuda Triange. It takes place in the future, (2012 I think) and ends with you just saving a meteor from destroying the planet. The concept is that all these civilizations knew that this was coming and left behind clues and tools to help stop it.
I thoroughly enjoyed this game and would recommend it to anyone who likes suspenseful adventure games, puzzles, and/or ancient civilizations. If you do make the choice to buy it, have fun and good luck! :)
