This is Myst, Well to be more specific this is Myst 3: Exile. But still it is Myst, and most of you know what that means. Beautiful graphics.Nice sounds and music. And empty worlds with mechanisms to frob and books to read. Need I say more? Perhaps not, but I will, go on at some length. I suppose there are people who are simultaneously interested in a Myst game and have a very short attention span.For those people: This game is like Myst. It was designed by Presto Studios,not Cyan and the Brothers Miller. Its gameplay and puzzles are very similar to those in Myst and in Riven if you have played the first two games? Then you'll probably like this one? Myst 3 won't change your mind. But the devel is in the details,as I will attempt to explain. The plot, such as it is: you pay a visit to Atrus and Catherine, some time after Riven. He's hard at work on Releeshahn, a new Age for the D'ni.He wants you to see it, but before he can take you there, a man appears, and grabs the Releeshahn book, and pouf! and he vanishes through a linking book.The linking book doesn't go with him, since that's not how the linking book works.This gives you a chance to follow him.And you do,of course,thus landing in a world named J'nanin. It turns out that J'nanin is the hub for three teaching worlds, worlds which Atrus put together to help his two sons learn the techniques necessary to write Ages. Need I say more the game looks spectacular.
