Summary: expansive game ever
Review: Ok, I have played Myst a good bit, so I can personally atest to the complexity of this game. I will half to admit, that I used the strategy guide a great deal to help me, because some parts were just impossible. First of all, you half to be extremely knowledgeable before you even attempt to play this game. There are things that i don't even understand, and im not dumb. But the most difficult thing is tying together little pieces of the game to figure out one piece of the puzzle. I really like this game, and have yet to beat it. The music is haunting almost, and makes you feel like you are there, walking in a realistic 3D enviorment surrounded by things that you have no idea what they are, but will tie into the game as it progresses. There are also 5 completly diffrent "Ages" : Myst island, The Selentic Age, The Stoneship age, The Mechanical Age, and The Channelwood Age. This is a very complex and difficult, and i would warn anybody who play it to be ready for a good challenge.

Summary: Myst has to be the best adventure/puzzle game ever
Review: I bought Myst a number of months ago and i was shocked by the incredibly beatifuly pre-rendered graphics! I was so engrossed in this game that i actually felt as if i knew each world as if i had been there before! unfortunatly ,because of that, when the game came to the finish (Which was a VERY long time because it is an enoumous game)i was upset that i had to leave the world of Myst! i would recomend this game to anyone who loves easy going games with excellent puzzles. Warning : Attention to detail is required for each beautifully rendered screen! Brill!

Summary: A truly visceral experience!
Review: "Myst" not only gives us a challenging mystery to unlock (which is no small task or accomplishment), it takes us into a world full of vision, brilliance and lush setting to take our breath away. After being transported to a mysterious island by way of opening a book, the journey begins, and in order to figure out the residing secrets and clues the island has to offer, one must explore like never before, and study the atmosphere and surroundings as if they were for college credit. Keep in mind everything you find minute and abstract, because that may just be what you need to unlock the many doors into the new worlds. The graphic design for this game is stunning, a complete masterpiece, and while it may take a bit longer than most games to load its images, it's not much, and it does add to the life-like experience. The settings themselves, while being beautiful, have a certain degree of intensity and underlying terror to them, especially in the searching of the bedrooms in the different worlds. This is a game experience not to be missed; even the most worldy and sophisticated of minds will be challenged. Enjoy!

Summary: Dated?.... I don't think so!
Review: I never jumped on the Myst bandwagon when everyone was playing it. I found it at a bargain price a few weeks ago and decided to give it a try. I was not disappointed! The user interface was a breeze, just point-and-click. The graphics and special effects are not that great by today's standards. However, the story line and puzzles kept me engrossed. I couldn't stop thinking about the game until I had solved it! If you like adventure games and enjoy solving puzzles, get this game!

Summary: A great game
Review: This Game is a good game depending on your personality. If you like to drive around in a car in New York City or shooting up alien invaders,in other words you like games with a lot of action, then this is probably not the game for you. there is no action, or enemies. Myst is more of exploring and puzzle solving. It requires quite a bit of patience to play. If your looking for an adventure/puzzle game then you should get myst. in my opinion it is a great game. one of the best i have ever played

The puzzles were fantastic,rewarding,unique,and challenging. Play this game with the lights down and the music loud. You WILL be there! I LOVE Myst as I did Riven and I cant wait to got back to....MYST III!

Summary: An all-time classic
Review: This is an all-time classic game. I have played more puzzle games than I can count in my head and this game has by far the best puzzles of them all. The graphics, sound, and interaction of this game are stunning. The way that you have to collect information from every available source to solve a puzzle makes the game extraordinary (many puzzle games do not work that way).One aspect of the puzzles in this game that makes it different from many other games is that you cannot guess to solve a puzzle. With many games, you can get past a tough point just buy clicking on every item in your inventory until you guess the right one. Eventually, you guess right, and you're on to the next puzzle. In Myst, you must decipher them the old-fashioned way! I agree with other reviewers, however, that this game has zero replayability. It should take you long enough though so that you won't feel like you didn't get your money's worth.

Summary: Mystical.
Review: This is the first PC game I ever bought. With it's awesome graphics and compelling story, it's easy to see why this is the top selling game of all-time. In it's time, this game and The 7th Guest changed the way gaming was to be. Most point and click games you see today are following these 2 trend setting games, but it's very hard for them to match up to what these games accomplished. It has some very tough puzzles and about the only lacking was there isn't much going on when you click on an area except for sound which is a key for most of the puzzles you will be solving. If you like point and click games with puzzles to solve, this is the game for you. A thoroughly enjoyable game that I have played close to a dozen times.
