Product Description
Myst is an immersive experience that draws you in and won't let you go. You enter a unique setting, venturing alone to varied times and places, the worlds that compose Myst. There are no instructions, and you encounter no living beings but soon realize your actions may help individuals who are somehow trapped in a parallel dimension. You must solve a multitude of puzzles, mazes, and problems, but Myst's principal attractions are its environment and the underlying intrafamily drama that unfolds as you explore. Myst offers no inventory, no death, and no dialogue. Although puzzles don't seem to have much direct connection to the game, they share a commonality. They take on many forms but follow a consistent thread. Some puzzles are very challenging, even obtuse. The nonlinear gameplay of Myst lets you go anywhere at any time.

All source code has been written specifically for Nintendo DS performance and gameplay New sounds, effects, and video clips added throughout. All newly created graphic sets for the added RIME AGE specifically done for the DS Save Multiple games for various players

Customer Reviews


Great fun. (2008-08-16)
You won't be disappointed with this game. It is short, like the original computer game, but still fun and challenging.


Small screen can't contain the wonder of an Age! (2008-07-07)
I love Myst. I have every version (original, Real Time, etc) and every sequel (Riven, Exile, etc), so of course I had to have the DS version as well. What a let down! Half the fun of the Myst series is the beautiful and fascinating detail of the Ages, which you can barely see on the DS screen. The other half of the fun in Myst is finding out all the little tasks you have to do in order to complete your work in each Age, and quite frankly, if I didn't already know what to do in each Age, the itty bitty screen pictures wouldn't have helped me. Reading the journals (another important thing in any Myst game) is annoying, with all the scrolling in every direction, and little touches like the opening animation in each Linking Book are gone. I can't recommend the DS version of Myst, but I highly recommend getting the PC version and playing it on the biggest monitor you can find (with the room lights out, too... you really feel like you're there!).


I should have listended (2008-06-30)
Like most others I was excited to see Myst coming to the DS. I should have listend to the reviews. This game did not transfer well to the DS. It is extremly hard to nagivate and the screen is very little. The zoom feature may as well not be there it does nothing to help you look at things. If you love this game and own a DS DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! I would highly recommend you try it out from a game rental site before you buy it. I plan to trade mine in with only an hour played.


Disappointing (2008-06-29)
I am a huge fan of the PS version of this game and was very excited to see they were making it available for the DS. I read the reviews on here and thought it couldn't possibly be as disappointing as the reviews showed. Well, don't kid yourself. The reviews are right. The graphics are pretty bad, the screen is too small making you nearly squint to see the finer details and there are some glitches. It's not worth it. Not even buying a used one is worth it. Sad.


Myst.....well, Missed (2008-06-23)
I eagerly awaited for that golden brown UPS package to show up on my porch after school. As the bus dropped me off I ran home, ripped open wrapping, and pushed that bay in my NDS. After an hour of trying to convince myself that it would get better; it didnt. I tried again the next day, no luck.

The puzzles are impossible!
It's repetitive and boring.
It makes you go back and forth to "try" different switches to see what will work. But if you, let's say, pull a lever, nothing will happen that will tell you it's right.

I have not played it since.
In short:
DON'T BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!
