Latest review of Uru: The Path of the Shell

Gamespy is first to review Uru: The Path of the Shell, Cyan World's expansion to Uru: Ages Beyond Myst giving it 2 out of 5 stars:

A key element of the Myst series has always been an assortment of devilishly difficult puzzles, but they're mostly missing from The Path of the Shell. The expansion technically includes five Ages, but you'll spend most of your time in only two of them, with only small forays into the other three. Even the two primary Ages only had a handful of long, but very tedious puzzles. Very few of the puzzles stood out as interesting, and one in particular has you jumping back and forth between Ages using the shell cloths you find on the walls. (You'll probably find yourself staring at the black load screen more often than the game itself.)
