Hey all, well with the wonderful return of Perimeter, I decided to get it and Etherlords at their considerably cheaper price tag. I figured also since I was at it I would treat myself to one $9.99 game. I have a few on my list, but I narrowed down the ones that seemed most interesting at this time to be Myst V and Space Colony HD.

However, I'm having a little trouble picking one (since I can only afford to grab one of the two) I'm not sure which to get. I love adventure games of all shapes and sorts, but I also like Sim games. If anyone would be willing to offer some advice as to which one would be most beneficial (or perhaps something else entirely so long as it's $9.99 or less); I would more than happy to hear it. Thank you for your time. :)
Hmm.

Which games of the Myst series have you already played?

SirPrimalform: Hmm.

Played? All of them actually, though I only own physical copies of 1, Riven, and 3. My father loaned me his copy of 4 and 5, years ago, but I never had the chance to purchase 4 or 5, myself. Both games look interesting, but I can only afford one of the two at this time. So, I was looking for which ever would be the best purchase for me at this time really.

Ah ok, because what I was going to say was Myst 5 is as much a sequel to Uru as it is a sequel to the four preceding Myst games and I would say get Uru before Myst 5.

Having said all that, if you've played Myst V already I'd say go for Space Colony HD (if I understand correctly, you haven't played that yet?). New experiences FTW. I'd buy games I've already played when they're on sale.

You make some valid points. Yeah I haven't played Space Colony HD before. Actually, there are a few games I own I should wishlist for sales. Thanks for the perspective, I think SCHD it is! :D
