Riven gives me goosebumps every time.
I haven't even played Machinarium or Samorost 3, but both of those soundtracks are masterpieces.
Have you played through Myst and Riven? I tried out the classic Myst through GOG, and...I certainly don't have the IQ for it haha
I played Myst in my youth, got stuck over and over and finally gave up. When Riven came I was so impressed by the music, graphics and story that I pushed through for years. Might have been nearly a decade, with fairly long pauses in between. I had to look up how to solve one or two puzzles but overall I got through it with persistence more than IQ.
After that I played through Myst by just looking up everything I couldn't solve, for the story. The 3D version of Myst has a hint system built in that makes it much easier.
I would suggest to give yourself a couple of days to a week to solve a problem by yourself and if that's not enough you look it up.
