Myst (PC)

You are known as "Stranger" and find a book titled "Myst". Curious, you open it and are amazed to see the first page is occupied by a moving image. This is image is of an island, and when you place your hand upon the page to touch it, you are astonished to find yourself on that very island. You have travelled to Myst, and finding no one about, youare left with no option but to explore this place. You then discover a library, and find two books. One is red and one is blue. Mysteriously, each of the books seem to contain a trapped man, whose messages to you via the books are faint.

Myst is a game in which you start off in the docks of a surreal island. The game itself comes with very little in the way of instructions on how to play, you just get a blank book for making notes and a sheet that tells you how to rotate the tower above the library.

This is one for the 6 week holidays I have to tell you. Its not a platform game that you can pick up and drop.

Myst, I think is a very weird game that is trying to top the amazing time laps. I think the only up side of this game that i can think about is the graphics. Myst is a relatively new game, and the aim of the game is to get to the end of your journey. There are a number of different puzzles that have to be solved before you can move on in the game.

It is however, nearly there...and if the makers didn’t try and copy games like the 7th Guest, and the 11th hour, then it would be there as an individual. The story its self is weird. You might disagree with ...  Read the complete review
