    On sale at Steam for $10, I bought it at $13.59 and it sure was worth it. Great graphics, and it took them 3 years to make this game. I try most of the time to solve the puzzles myself, but if I get stuck there are youtube game walkthroughs to follow to get past HARD puzzles. Some puzzles you can skip, the only hard part is searching for that one item or clue you need to get to the next step, and then that could be time consuming.

    This certainly is a good break from FPS shooters, which sometimes I got bored off. Plus you can save anytime anywhere in this game.

    Anyone play this game already? How'd you like it?

    I'm curious, but I bought the Sherlock Holmes pack from Steam several months ago and haven't gotten around to playing any of the games. It's possible that Testament is the best of them all, but I can't spend $10 for another Sherlock Holmes game until I've gotten the dust off of some of the others I own.

    What is the gameplay like? Point-and-click adventure? Action adventure? Myst-like?
