Myst-- The Masterpiece Edition

bytinasamuels May 1, 2001
86 Helpfuls 87 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros nice graphics and sounds
Cons boring really
Recommended it? No

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 that I don't like it could be masterful and I... Read full review »

Pros Many (see below)
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

Ever wanted to get away from it all? Enter Myst. I recommend Myst for anyone who ever feels the need to just get away from reality for a bit for the following reasons:

1) Beautifully Done: Absolutely. Each image is a work of art. The world draws you in and doesn't let you go until you're... Read full review »

River of Myst...

Pros Graphics, music, riddles riddles riddles, story, plot, intrigue.
Cons You have to have sound on your computer.
Recommended it? Yes

A friend had bought this game, and then I saw it in a store. I read the cover and thought about it, put it back, and went to ask him what he thought of it. By his suggestion I bought it that very night.

I first saw the previews, and expected a grand show. I also expected incredible music,... Read full review »

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

Pros It looks pretty.
Cons Empty. Dull. Small. Repetitive. Not a game.
Recommended it? No

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 but one is more so than the other.

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

byTeach2 Aug 1, 2000
18 Helpfuls 19 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
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...
Recommended it? Yes

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 wonder, always attempting to figure out the path to... Read full review »

Pros intelligent and challenging first person adventure . Weeks of gameplay .
Cons Puzzles are not overly obvious, so not for the impatient
Recommended it? Yes

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... Read full review »

What is the Mystery about Myst?!

bydemon Oct 24, 1999
28 Helpfuls 29 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent graphical interface.
Cons Way too easy!!
Recommended it? No

I bought Myst at a yard sale for $10. I had heard that it was one of the toughest games ever created for the PC and thought that I was getting a real steal. What I got was an incredible first person world navigation game with extremely easy problems. I finished the game in 3 hours.

A Thinking Person's Game

bysllesq Jan 24, 2000
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros No killing, no guns, no dying
Cons My eyes bugged out if I played too long...as with any computer game
Recommended it? Yes

Myst is not a game for a fan of the shoot 'em up, kill 'em genre of computer games that we hear about all the time. It is for a person who likes a game with a challenge, and doesn't want to have to worry about dying and replaying a level. When I first got Myst, I had no idea what it was about. A...

To Play or Not to Play

byzookeeper16 Jan 19, 2000
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Engaging
Cons Takes a lot of patience
Recommended it? Yes

I think this game is a hard one to review. Its a game you have to play by instinct more than anything else, and you have to have a good mind for it. You've fallen into this mysterious land and find its inhabitants missing. Then your job its to find out what happened to them. Along the way you have... Read full review »

Pros challenging, wasn't over right away, interesting
Cons sometimes too hard, sometimes too easy, rarely in the middle
Recommended it? Yes

I bought Myst on the advice of a friend, not knowing anything about how to play the game. I used to be a fan of action/adventure games, but as I've gotten older I've discovered puzzle-type video games and enjoy the mental challenge. Well, Myst brought back memories of the early computer games like... Read full review »

Myst Gear For The Journey Rare Sealed Big Box Pc

Myst does not involve guns, betrayal or platform jumping. Instead, it is a classic puzzle and exploration game that challenges your mind as opposed to your reflexes. Find yourself in a mysterious world where things aren't as they seem and it's your job to figure out why you are there, and more importantly to figure out how to get out of this alternate reality. You will go about this by being observant and creative as these arent the types of puzzles you are accustomed to seeing in a videogame. More of an intellectual challenge than a physical one, Myst is a great game for those looking for a change of pace.
