  • This is a GAME?! MY game would have hookers. And Blackjack. Oh, forget the game!

    Apr 04 '10
    Pros: It looks pretty.
    Cons: Empty. Dull. Small. Repetitive. Not a game.

    Summary: Let's start by saying two things. First off, this is a GAME?!Second off, I spent £1 for this game at a charity shop. And I still feel ripped off. Myst is like a Game in the same way that Work is like Play - they're both four letter words ...

    Aug 02 '08
    Pros: It is an amazing experience.

  • A Not Quite So Deserted Island

    Nov 18 '07
    Pros: intelligent and challenging first person adventure . Weeks of gameplay .
    Cons: Puzzles are not overly obvious, so not for the impatient

    Summary: 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 ...

  • Lost in the Myst

    Dec 05 '01
    Pros: Improved graphics, built-in game guide
    Cons: Game guide less helpful than would be nice

    Summary: I just recently bought this game(from Ross, no less). I got it for seven bucks. Compared to the thirty or so dollars it would have cost if I'd bought it a year ago.

    The story line:

    I won't give it away, but it involves two sons...

  • Picture book game

    Oct 10 '01
    Pros: Original, dreamy atmosphere, logic puzzles, beautiful graphics and music
    Cons: Requires a lot of time and patience, limited interface, no interaction with other characters

    Summary: Myst is a game that appeals to a very limited audience. That's why it's a bit ironic that it also happens to be the best-selling PC game of all times with over 5 million copies sold world-wide. People usually tend to either love or hate the game. Myst...

  • Myst-- The Masterpiece Edition

    May 01 '01
    Pros: nice graphics and sounds
    Cons: boring really

    Summary: First off, even though I found this game boring to a fault, let me say that your mileage may vary. I am very set into a certain genre that I like in games. If its more Diablo or Sim based I am all for it no matter how mindnumbing, or if its in a format...

  • Myst

    Feb 09 '01
    Pros: Always a surprise
    Cons: Difficult to learn

    Summary: This was the first computer game I owned and is still the best. Although it is a bit difficult to grasp due to the lack of direction given by the game's designers, once into it, it provides hours of fun.
    The premise is rather simple - you are...

  • Escape from winter into the MYST !!!!

    Dec 26 '00
    Pros: Scenes and sounds
    Cons: We will have to wait a long time before a better game comes along.

    Summary: Myst is a classic that will be hard to ever get tired of or replace
    with a new favorite. The game is not easy or ordinary. THE GRAPHICS
    ARE THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN ! A true escape to a very captivating
    place. The music is haunting and...

  • Finally, a THINKING game

    Nov 29 '00
    Pros: No death, thinking game
    Cons: older game

    Summary: In a household where games are dominated by the likes of Quake, Bass Fishing and Pro Golf all I can say is THANK YOU FOR A GAME THAT REQUIRES THINKING!!!

    Not only does it require thinking, but it also has beautiful graphics and no blood,...

  • There is no "Myst" clouding our view on this game!!

    Aug 01 '00
    Pros: great color, great gameplay, wonderful graphic, great sound
    Cons: not enough time to spend on it....

    Summary: I have just recently bought myself a copy of one of the best selling games of all time, Myst. I could not believe the amazing graphics and gameplay that came along with the 20.00 dollar game that I bought. These graphics are cutting edge and reveal a...

  • In Response To Skadar's Opinion (also talks about Myst)

    Aug 01 '00
    Pros: Great graphics, wonderful gameplay, a great storyline, a new feeling in computer games
    Cons: depending on your computer Myst may run slowly at times...

    Summary: I honestly must say when I first saw Myst in the stores I was blown away by the still pictures of the game placed on the back of the box. They looked like something people have never seen before, a parallel world made up just for us to go into and...

  • Myst-I-Fied

    Jul 23 '00
    Pros: Frisbee Style CD- flys far !!!
    Cons: You pay for the game- that's criminal

    Summary: A great view by the ocean jumps out at you but you are not sure what to do. So, you click just ahead of you to reach a meaningless little switch that, by some stretch of your imagination, opens or closes something somewhere else. What am I doing...

  • Myst: Art, Storytelling, Wonder

    Jul 11 '00
    Pros: Groundbreaking graphics/sound, suspense for over a month
    Cons: Not real-time immersive 3D (but Myst Dimensions coming soon)

    Summary: Myst is the largest selling computer game of all time. Some friends of mine were raving about it. These friends and I bore easily with shoot-em-up type computer games. We prefer games with intellectual challenge and depth, with beauty and art, and...

  • The Fog has Lifted

    Jun 21 '00
    Pros: Fantastic Virtual World, Excellent Storyline
    Cons: Way before its time

    Summary: One of the few games that come along WAY before its time. This game has an excellent storyline, as well as a graphical interface that makes it one of the best games to play. I thoroughly enjoyed this game. It is the only game where I was able to...
