    What's this Game?

    Can't remember the name of this game, just wondering if any of you lot can help.

    It was not so much a game as such, more a journey through a fantasy world where one would navigate through Avatar like landscapes. In fact, it was more a showcase for the graphics than anything and the design bureau I worked in at the time used to rave about it.

    This was in the late 90's - don't know if it's still current but it had a one word name - I'm tempted to say it was something like "Dune" but it wasn't.

          Come on, give us some more clues. We don't have much to go on here.

            Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

              Commander Keen

              (seeing as I work with green screens, this is pretty much hi-tech for me plus its the last game I think I actually managed to play for longet than 2 minutes)

                  It was first person.

                  And a one word name.

                  This ain't a quiz - I've completely forgotten the name and I want to buy a copy if it's still around!

                    I was just meaning anything else you can remember would help. Myst and Riven sound like the closest ones so far. Not really games, more like surreal slideshows with puzzles.
