[comp.sys.mac.games] mac adventure games

I'm in the market for a really good adventure game for my Mac. I've
played adventure and zork years ago and have more recently engaged 
my time with nethack,ularn and omega on SUNs at work. Since I've 
only recently aquired my Mac I really don't have a good idea of what
is available or what is even worth while. Does anyone have any 
suggestions as to what the best adventure game is for the mac?
	
	Thanks in advance

I don't know if I'd call it the best, but a game by Infocom which I found
very challenging was STARCROSS.  It begins by your finding what appears to
be an abandoned alien starship.  Puzzles from several different disciplines.

The opinions here are my own.  (but you can have them if you want)
