Both of the FREE Syberia games are good and will run on almost any PC or laptop.

Just don't expect cutting-edge graphics.

But if an interesting puzzle game with a solid story is what you're after, you will enjoy them.

I still have Cyberia1 and 2 on original CDs.
I bought Cyberia1 on CDs in 2001 from Compusa. Cyberia1 game box is thicker than Cyberia2 game box. Cyberia2 jewelcase is double sided.

Cyberia1 is about Smilie500MB but Stream version is 1.16GB.

Cyberia2 on 2CDs is also about 1GB but Stream version is EEK! 9.03GB.


Is it possible to redownload Sream games I bought for $0 at another time.
My Steam purchase history showing games I own but there is no option toConfused redownload any of my Stream games in the list.

Wow didnt even know they were working on a fourth game in the series. Looks like its set to come out late December. Interesting. Have read over the years that the third game was by far the worst, so hopefully theyll make up for that!

You can download any Steam games you've purchased as many times as you wish.

There's an option to download them on every game page, and if you right click on a game in your library, you can also download it.

You can only be signed into Steam with one account, so if you bought them with a different account, you will have to log out and then back in with those credentials.

Sort your games by installed locally and you will see what is on your present computer.

You can also install games on three devices. On some games, you can install them on more than three.

There's a couple of things. Many newer versions of older games have much larger files to support newer graphics and functionality.

Whether on CD or a streaming download file, the compression may vary greatly.

Also, devs routinely update the code to their games. As the first Syberia is 20 years old, I'm sure a considerable amount of code was changed to make it work on newer computers and versions of Windows or Mac. Likely the graphics have been upgraded multiple times.

Then, you have the assortment of things like Visual C++, Direct X, sound processing, and other packages that were likely not on the original CD. Plus, there may be drivers and other packages.

You can pop the CD in and open it to compare it to the Steam version on your computer.

I think it's actually a remaster of the games, but I may be wrong.

🤣🤣🤣 You did that big explanation, but what that guy meant was that the person before him kept misspelling the name, "Syberia."

Completely unnecessary explanation.
