After Myst and Riven, this was an early gem of my Adventure genre experience. Has it held up over time or become a true classic? Not really, but the nostalgia with both Crystal Key and its sequel runs incredibly deep and I would buy it in an instant just to bring back the memories from that era of gaming, even if it's not a top tier game. This is a textbook definition for a "Good Old Game" that merits preservation.

Grand Theft Auto Advance
Grand Theft Auto AdvanceGrand Theft Auto Advance is a handheld console game developed by Digital Eclipse, published by Rockstar Games, and released on October 26, 2004 for the Game Boy Advance. It is the only Grand Theft Auto game to not be developed by a Rockstar studio (formerly DMA Design). The game is played from a top-down perspective; this view angle was seen on the first two games in the series, Grand Theft Auto and Grand Theft Auto 2, but vehicle-based side-missions (such as "Vigilante" and "Paramedic"), the heads-up display and a large majority of the weapons, first introduced in the three-dimensional counterparts, have also been included. Unlike previous top-down Grand Theft Auto games, vehicles can now flip over. It is the first game from the Grand Theft Auto series which got a 16+ rating from PEGI and an M rating (recommended for mature audiences though any age is still allowed access) from the Australian Classification Board. The game was released on the same day as the North American release of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
