This series just went out on sale a little while ago on Steam with the release of the third and final installment. For though of you who don't know its a series of German-made Point-and-Click problem solving games based around the antics of Rufus, a egotistical self-professed tinkerer who lives on a planet of scrap and garbage, Deponia, who is trying to reach a floating paradise city in the sky called Elysium(Don't ask me whether this or the movie Elysium came first). Filled with dark comedy, parodies, and at times even illogical twists to puzzles, it is definately a unique game series and one that I enjoyed playing and well worth the price in my opinion, So if you like point-and-click puzzle solving games with humour to rival The Bard's Tale in stature, I suggest you guys check it out.

Neither, It was what the Greco-Roman version of Heaven.

More Roman than Greek if the sources are to be believed, but I meant more along the lines of a story wherein the Hero lives on a planet of garbage, has its populace kept in line by Authortative Robotic men, and wants to reach a floating city which the super rich built for themselves to live in luxury. I don't know whether Deponia or Elysium came first, but its not that it really matters since Deponia is a comedic parody of that story if anything.
