Gotta love the Mystverse.

Myst is basically my favorite thing ever XD

now this is something I have not seen before. Myst is defiantly a very good puzzle game.

Myst defined the genre!

Oh my goodness!! I have not been to Channelwood in over an age! What an impossible-to-describe rush of memories and emotions o.o

Myst was quite literally the first computer game that I ever played. I guess it sort of set the tone for everything that followed for me.

It was probably a first video game for a lot of people... it came out in 1993 and was *the* best-selling video game of all time until the Sims beat it out in 2002.

I remember wandering through Myst island as a pretty young kid. I never figured out how to get to any age other than the Stoneship age until I was much older... like middle school, I think.

The Myst universe has always kind of defined my video game tastes and became a minor obsession that I'll always have... I've played and finished all the games in the series (five Myst games, plus the spinoff Uru: Ages Beyond Myst) and read all three novels set in the universe. I was even part of the beta of the Myst Online MMO experiment that sadly failed just a year or two later.

Basically Myst is one of my favorite things ever, and it's a game that I revisit whenever I want the calming effect of just wandering through beautiful environments and losing myself in another world.

Then, perhaps, you might find this interesting as well: http://obduction.com/

You have no idea how much I am looking forward to that!!!

Hooray :D

although I will probably have to buy a new computer to play it when it does come out ^^;

I've never played Myst. I briefly watched my cousin play a little of it when I was 6 and that's it. Now seeing all the pretty scenes you're drawing makes me kinda wish I did. XP

it's not too late! I'm pretty sure you can pick up realMYST on Steam or GOG.com for $6, and realMYST: Masterpiece edition (same thing, better graphics) is also in both places for about $18 (personally though I don't think the graphics upgrade is worth the jacked price but idk)

You can also get classic Myst for a variety of platforms usually for around $5 or $6.

I would recommend getting the $6 realMYST and having a play of it. It has some minor changes that bring it in line with the sequels, and a new age to explore once you "beat" the original game," which has a tie-in to the 4th game.

They're all super worth playing, if you like adventure games at all. You can get bad endings (so save before you make a major choice!!) but you can't actually die or be killed during gameplay, and you can take it at your own pace, so it's definitely a different experience from the FPS and RTS etc. scene.

Myst was such an amazing series! I was really obsessed with it growing up. :3

I'm still obsessed with it ^^;
