The one I am looking for has 3d rendered graphics like Myst. I am going to dig through all my old games later and see if I still have it.
I need to play this game again. Ahhh what is it called...
EDIT: FOUND IT!!!!
It was Gadget.

Status : Online | Damn, I've been (figuratively) sitting on Gadget for like 12 years now. I should give that a play through soon. Too bad I bonked my win3.1 install for dosbox. I think I got it to work under a Win98 virtual machine at some point though.

Status : Online | You really should play it. Definitely one of my all time favorites. I haven't played it since it came out in 93 so this is going to be a nice bit of nostalgia.
I have it running on my old machine that has Windows 98 on it.
