	BBC NEWS \| Technology \| Sex appeal of Myst games
		The belief within many areas of the games industry that women like to play puzzles rather than shoot things, is an assumption which is frustrating for a large proportion of female gamers who do shoot to kill.
		Through the gaming medium, however, he does talk to her and she sees it as an unobtrusive way of finding out what is going on in his life.
		Myst IV is a "family drama" which picks up the unfinished tale of the villainous pair, Sirrus and Achenar.

	IGN: Myst IV Revelation Review
		Adventure games (in the classic sense) have been on their way out of the market place for some time now.
		Myst 4 on the other hand, takes you where most other adventure games haven't in a very long time: anywhere but wherever you happen to be playing it.
		This isn't to say the game is perfect, as no game really is, but as far as adventure games go, it's damn near flawless.

		In addition to the offline game, for an additional fee, players will be able to join a persistent, social world with regularly updated content and new ages to explore.
		The whole game is rendered in 3D, and looks spectacular, with varied environments from the vast expanse of desert to the underground D’ni city.
		If you can’t wait for the game to be released, you might still be able to participate in the final testing, which you can sign up for here.

		It is Yeesha, daughter of Atrus (both are from earlier Myst games), and she tells you, in her cryptic way (get used to this, by the way), that her father is imprisoned on Myst Island.
		Veterans of the original Myst will probably feel at home with the classic mouse-click mode, which is an updated version of the point-and-click interface in all Myst games.
		Myst V is a cryptic game to figure out, which is a huge part of the series' appeal.

		The game interface that you used to explore the Great Underground Empire in "Zork" was a fl computer screen, a winking green cursor and your imagination.
		"Myst IV Revelation" from Ubisoft was released a few months ago for Windows and Macintosh, and it debuts as a console game this month with a high-definition version for the Microsoft Xbox.
		As in the previous "Myst" games, you'll face a series of puzzles in your effort to unravel the mysteries of the D'ni.

	IMG Feature: IMG Interviews UbiSoft's Geneviève Lord
		Revelation is by far the grandest Myst game to date, yet it also feels most like the original from which it evolved.
		On top of that, since Myst games have always been very Mac oriented, we wanted the game to be on a hybrid Mac-PC version so as to make sure that Mac players would have the same opportunities to play as PC players.
		Our conclusion was that the atmosphere of the original Myst game was certainly one of the key factors that made that game so fantastic.

	UHS: Chemicus Review
		The game is fairly non-linear (in that you can move about freely through all parts of this alternate world); however, the game will not allow you to continue to a point where you will need something that you do not yet have.
		The only part of the game that became a bit linear was the end game -- and yet, the very puzzles that were being presented at that point had to be linear, due to the order in which things were being presented and analyzed.
		The puzzles in the game are one place where there might be some contention as to the intuitiveness of the game.

	Myst IV: Revelation Review for PC at GameSpot
		Like its predecessors, Myst IV Revelation is a deliberately paced first-person-perspective adventure game whose controls are almost instantly intuitive--and yet its incredibly complex and challenging puzzles are about as far from instantly intuitive as possible.
		Though your familiarity with previous Myst games is not necessarily assumed by Myst IV Revelation, its storyline is heavily intertwined with previous entries in the series.
		Unlike last year's Uru: Ages Beyond Myst, Myst IV is not a fully 3D game, which means you'll be moving from node to node--from one picturesque scene to another--as you click around.

	Myst IV: Revelation review
		Chronologically, this game comes after Exile; Yeesha, the baby at the beginning of Exile, is now a bright, engaging 10-year old, and Atrus (played, once again, by Rand Miller, CEO of Cyan Worlds) is starting to show some age, with a distinguished display of greying hair and beard.
		To take Tomahna for example, the trees move in the wind, the waterfall is shrouded in mist (not myst, sic!), smoke rises from the kitchen, birds and insects flutter around the vegetation and scattered leaves blow in the breeze.
		Part way into the game, you obtain an amulet of memories that is used to give plot and character developing colour, especially by allowing the player to hear the characters read out the contents of their various journals.

	Myst for PC Review - PC Myst Review
		Myst is an immersive experience that draws you in and won't let you go.
		While Myst is superlative, I do have two complaints: the lack of high-end 3D and animated visuals, and the cheesy ending.
		Myst's creators, Rand and Robyn Miller, seamlessly integrated those videos into the background graphics and designed stunning artwork, but simply adding fog is not enough to create a true 3D feel.

		If that sounds like the perfect game for you, then you might want to buy some tea in bulk when you purchase Myst III: Exile.
		As in the first two games, you journey through Myst III by moving from screen to screen, instead of wandering freely through the environment.
		The screens in Myst III have full-motion video and animation, and you can use your mouse to pan back and forth across the scene.

		Myst trapped the player in a series of interconnected worlds, and challenged the player to puzzle through the ramblings of two mad brothers in order to free Atrus, their imprisoned father.
		Myst fans of old will be delighted with this new installment, and those new to the series will be enchanted, provided they are willing to spend time on the puzzles, enjoy the scenery, and let the game carry them away.
		There were moments in both Myst and Riven (but especially Riven) of spine-tingling, near-emotional discovery that could give a player goosebumps; both games had a kind of completeness of underlying story (not to be confused with "plot") that caused the player to feel more like an archaeologist than a game enthusiast.

		Myst is a game that I think is attractive to readers and gamers who like more contemplative entertainment, and (this is just a guess) it probably attracts those of us who enjoy playing games like chess or Scrabble on a computer.
		I wasn't playing games when Myst came out in the early 90s so but I've heard about what a gaming breakthrough it was at the time.
		What Myst does not include is blood and guts and senseless violence, there is very little action and for those seeking a quick mindless thrill this is the wrong game to buy.

	Myst, the Glass Bead Game and Universities
		The only thing needed to make the future of computer game playing and the future of computer education one thing is a concept of gaming which extends as far as the concept of education -- and Hermann Hesse's Glass Bead Game does this.
		A future Glass Bead Game with Myst-like properties could encompass the entirety of education, because (a) unlike chess it deals in the sum of human culture and knowledge while (b) its own skills involve a chess-like mastery: its game aspect stretches as high as its knowledge base.
		The future of education lies in a Game involving mastery in the acquiring and manipulating of knowledges, both in depth within individual disciplines, and in breadth across them.

	Boston.com / A&E / Flood of games, too few players cause change in online realm
		The game was the latest installment in the Myst series, one of the most popular in the history of computer gaming.
		Role-playing games require that kind of investment and more -- as much as $15 a month to retain membership in the fantasy world.
		The idea now is to offer a two-tiered game, in which casual players can pop in for a brief bout of excitement while more diligent fans can play out their more complex fantasies.

	Apple - Games - Myst IV: Revelation
		While the three previous Myst games focused on Atrus and Catherine’s family in some way, Revelation brings the obviously strained relationship between parents and sons to the forefront.
		Miller and others at Cyan, the original developer of the game, set down “a certain number of rules [my] team had to adhere to,” Lord explains, “but within those few limits, we were free to develop our own ideas.
		It was, however, of the utmost importance for all concerned that we produce a Myst that respects the spirit and lore of the previous games in the series.” Needless to say, Miller was happy with their work.

		Of course, it was also the first CD Rom game for the Computer that showed off the new technology (note that it certainly plays like a demo for technology, rather than a real game).
		Myst was released on tons of systems, including the Sega CD, PlayStation, Saturn, and the Jaguar CD version (which is the one we are reviewing here).
		If it were a game, they would have given you a chance, but as a marketing scheme, Myst feels like an excuse (or reason) to get the extremely popular "Book" of Myst (which is the best selling hint guide in computer history).

		Jack Wall is the acclaimed composer and music producer for a number of gaming titles including LucasArts' Wrath Unleashed, BioWare's upcoming Jade Empire, and UbiSoft's Myst III: Exile, nominated by the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences for Excellence in Original Musical Composition.
		That said, I really love doing the cinematics in games - that's where I have the chance to drive the story by tying in themes from the in-game portion of the score.
		M4G: Since the Myst games are fairly static (visually speaking)-and Myst IV being the most dynamic of them all, how much music were you required to compose for the latest installment in the series?

	Riven: Sequel to Myst - Computer Games
		The graphics are great, an improvement over the original Myst in that you have rippling water and other moving parts.
		Unfortunately, gameplay is about your interaction in the game, and the puzzles here just weren't as well done as those in Myst or in Myst 3.
		Still, it's a good game to play if you enjoyed Myst or Myst 3: Exile, if only to help you understand the full storyline and enjoy the graphics.

		The deficits of most other games, with their polygonal rigidity and lattice maps, is achingly apparent in comparison.
		Unfortunately, the writing, which is passable through most of the game -- okay, better than passable compared to most game dialogue -- turns laughable at the end.
		The interface is an anamorphic-panning view (the Myst series catches up to 1994 technology!) with a bit of a twist.
