 Graphics are Beautiful, you might want the play-with-disc-in versionSep 07, 2010
I have both of these games, though I have them on the older leave-the-discs-in versions. If, as one reviewer noted, this double set, which doesn't require the discs in the machine, has watered down graphics, then you might want to find the old versions. The scenery is inventive and beautiful. In Syberia 1, the moving robots are wonderful, in Syberia 2, the land of the ice is fabulous. This game is more beautiful than a lot of newer games.
In some adventure point-and-click games I get a little bored with the talking talking talking. The Syberias have talking, of course, but it isn't literally the only action for ten minutes at a time.
I had to cheat, with a walkthrough hint, quite a few times for both games. But that's good, I don't want a game that's too easy. Recommended.
Syberia I and II - Loved emAug 30, 2010
I am a little ol' lady that does NOT like all the new hyped up games. Fighting, Killing, mugging etc. etc. etc.
Now here are a couple of great games that I enjoyed thoroughly. I go through my games and invariably pull out the "old faithful" Syberia set. I'm getting a little tired of not being able to find better games geared for the older population, so continually bring these out again.
The newer version with both games on a DVD does not have the sharpness of the single, more expensive games. The cheaper games can be played without inserting the disk. But the 'original' Syberia II has to be in the disk drive to play it.
I'm saving the good set, and use the cheaper ones when I'm playing them.
Wish I could find a dozen more of this caliber.
Did I love thise games??
YES!!!
found it excellentJul 18, 2010
Fellow complains that DVD is not indicated, and his review is gven as "the best" of negative reviews. Got to wonder. The illustration clearly! shows DVD.
Anyhow, the game was certainly enjoyed here, excellent game.
p.s. A DVD drive can be bought for under $20, is there a man in the country without one? Apparently yes.
 syberia 1&2 reviewMar 09, 2010
This combination of games gives a lot of action for the money, scenery is excellent although I would like to be able to pan around like you can in the Myst series but considering the amount of scenery they got on one disc I can't really complain. An ordinary person can figure out many of the necessary actions and I would recommend players of common ability to go with the walkthrough that only gives hints instead of the solution right away. Sometimes the action cursor was a little slow in indicating where a hot spot was and I missed them until consulting the walkthrough.
Overall an enjoyable game, a great bargain. I am quite satisfied.

Best Adventure EverFeb 21, 2010
In 1995 a friend introduced me to Myst. That was the greatest adventure I'd ever done equal to my tour of Europe. I was hooked on adventure games from that point on. I was 53 in that year and NOT computer literate. Getting into adventure games changed all that ! I now build computer systems for a hobby !
Syberia is THE GREATEST adventure game ( other than Myst ) that I have played. I have played it over and over and love it every time. I just ordered about my 5 th copy as I have either given away my other copies or grandchildren have snagged them up. DO PLAY THIS GAME !!!
