If you have played the predecssors, Myst and Riven, then all you need is an assurance that it is a worthy successor, with some of the frustrating aspects toned down. If you are new to the series, this is an OK place to start as it does not rely on knowledge of the rest of the saga, which has been a consistent best-seller. You explore various small worlds, solving puzzles of different types and levels of complexity to give you access to new areas. The graphical effects are magical, transporting you to fantastic locations. The puzzles are tricky, but have a reasonable vein of logic running through them.
Many whimsical touches turn out to be clues.
