Anyone ever play this?
The Myst series is by far one of my favorites, and I'm just now starting to play Uru: The Complete Chronicles for the first time. I predict it's going to be a very long, fun journey...

Ahhh, MYST... I've loved those games for a long time... never got around to getting URU, though. Is it out for Mac yet?

I'm pretty sure you could get it on mac. It's been out a while, they just now put it back online (different company though). I've only played about 2 hours but so far its pretty good. Very nice looking in-game.
And yeah, the original Myst is probably my favorite out of all of them. I never got far into the 5th one though. Myst 3 was a really good one too I thought.

I played the original myst once, just walked around a bunch and never knew what to do. Never played again. Probably wouldve worked better if I was older. Who knows.

Love the Myst series. Just finished 'Myst 4: Revelation' last weekend. I bought it a long time ago and never got around to it until recently. Some of the puzzles were a real bitch. Had to use the in-game help to get through a couple spots.
The original was still my fave, and Riven was pretty nice also. But there hasn't been a let down in the whole series.

Riven probably would have been my favorite if it wasn't for the CD swapping every 10 minutes. It was actually the first one I ever played, but i went and finished the original before i finished Riven.
And I havn't actually finished all of the fourth yet but I'm really close. I havn't played it in ages though.

I have played them all almost. I'm stuck 3/4 the way thru Uru. They all had their charm and bad points also. Riven was the best IMO but I had to cheat like a mofo to get through it. Exile was easy but had a really cool video puzzle with the Marble balls going around on tracks in an Oriental looking world that was cool.

Yep I must admit I cheated some on Riven too. Actually the only one I didn't cheat at all with was the first. The third I didn't need too much help with either. But the fourth I have found myself cheating somewhat often.
Has anyone read any of the Myst books? Theres 3 and they don't print them anymore. I expected them to be shitty since most books based on games are, but I actually enjoyed reading The Book of Atrus very much. I have The Book of Ti'ana but I have yet to read it...
