MYST Masterpiece Rules!

MYST is my favorite! With great graphics and realistic sound, it puts you in the feet of an explorer, free to play around, solve puzzles, and decide what to do with Atus's sons. Not easy if you haven't done it before. For some people, players guides may be helpfull; however the virtual guide can do a lot for you if you just ask! The MYST series is a must for all gamers, and look for new MYST products as well!

Great game

This is a great game. It's not for everyone -- if you need nonstop action and violence, keep looking, because you're apt to find it frustrating and/or boring. But it's great if you like great graphics, intriguing storylines, challenging puzzles, and taking your time to explore a completely different world in an immersive gaming experience. Highly recommended, a classic.

I've been playing the Myst games for years, they never get old. I left a review for the DVD Trilogy Box-set for the Myst series, so I thought I should review each individual game as well.
First off, Myst is a classic. Of course, even with revisions, it is completely outdated. But the intrique and spark is still there. Beautiful scenery and lush sound. I wouldn't recommend this to first person shooter fans. But I'm a big first person shooter fan I still find Myst to be an excellent adventure.

Dig in and enjoy.

Myst Masterpiece

Myst Masterpiece is one of (if not) the best games I've ever played. Besides the great graphics, and really cool music, you actually have to think to complete it. Although it took too little time to complete, (a little over two weeks) it was extremely engrossing and entertaining. Fortunately, this version comes with built in hints which I had to use a couple of times (especially with the underground spaceship level). However, it is much more fulfilling to solve them on your own. The only problems I have with the game are (1) The short length,(2) The ending, which is rather disappointing and (3) I had problems with the game crashing to the desktop and losing all my work. This especially happened when trying to get to Channelwood. I am considering Myst III but will probably get Riven first. If you don't have this GET IT!!!

This game is the best game I've ever played(and I've played a lot of computer/video games.) I hope other people love it as much as I do.

Illogical

This game is stupid. All of the puzzle answers are illogical. Most games are thinking but this game is just random guessing until you get it right. Also, half of the game is just walking around an island. Hardly any gameplay, just walking around. Just looking at the sights and occasionally doing a stupid puzzle. The whole thing is like a slide show that sometimes stops to let you solve puzzles made in 5 minutes. If you want to do something which requires thinking, play some good games like Gabriel Knight, The Longest Journey or Tex Murphy. Or get away from the radiation and read a book.

This is a game?

Wake up everyone! This isn't a game! It's a slide show! You could make something like this in PowerPoint on your own for crying out loud!

A great new update to original Muyyst. Better than the King of the Hill arcade game or the stupid show!

Don't Bother

I bought Myst Masterpiece because I was looking for something kinder, gentler and nonviolent. What a disappointment! The slide-show format is totally unacceptable given the power of the last three generations of computers. Navigation is irritating when the game sometimes turns 90 degrees, and sometimes 180 degrees per mouse click. 5 and 6 years ago games were capable of scrolling movement and smooth 360 degree rotation! Perhaps worst of all is the recurrent need to memorize and input sound patterns. The points where the sounds occur and where they need to be repeated are widely separated. I made it to the second "world" and I'm NOT going any further. I regret this purchase.

This game is stupid!

This game is stupid! The answers to the puzzles in it are really illogical. A two year old could sit there and try every combination possible until they solved it. The puzzles don't have any thinking involved at all. The answers to them are really illogical and I don't know how anyone could of worked them out. I don't mean because it is too hard, it is because the answers hardly even have to do with the puzzles themselves. It has no story. All it is is these stupid puzzles that a two year old could figure out. If you are thinking of buying this game, it is a complete waste of time!
