Just call me Kate Walker!
Pros:
Wonderful graphics, especially while riding on the train.
Cons:
I completed it!
The Bottom Line:
I cannot play video games with guns and violence. This game is wonderful for young adults, and 50 year olds, like me!

Author's Review
It has been a very long time since I wrote a review. I hope you enjoy this review as much as I enjoyed playing this game.
The story unfolds:
As your journey begins, you are Kate Walker, a New York lawyer. You are on a mission from your superiors, to close a deal on a toy factory in the remote village Europe. You then travel forward looking for a certain person, who must sign over factory to you. In the midst of looking for this person, you meet some shady characters and some real nice ones. Your new best friend is an atomaton (don't call them robots), Oscar, who drives you absolutely crazy but you fall in love with him and his antics. Oscar becomes your buddy, your driver, your guide and your helper throughout the game when you just think you cannot go any further. His C3PO voice is charming, and he makes you smile all the time. Oscar takes you to many different places and guides you through, just when you think you are at your wits end.
This game has a splash of mystery and danger, as well as a very light side to it. The graphics are the best that I have ever seen in a game.
During the game, you need to solve puzzles and fix objects to pay for your "supper." These puzzles are not too difficult to figure out, but not real easy either. Your mouse is your guide, you move Kate all around, and with a click of the mouse, watch Kate.
I was sorry to finish Syberia, and I hope that the creators come up with a sequel - Syberia II or Kate Walker Rides Again!
If you have never played a video game before, and if I have peaked your curiosity, try playing Syberia. Turn off the television, kick your feet up, and take a ride with Oscar and Kate Walker!
