Myst Free Download

Myst was my first PC co-op game. In 1993 my friend Steve and I sat side-by-side in front of my boxy CRT peering in wonder at a game that looked unlike anything else ever made. We walked our way back and forth across beautiful and mysterious islands (well, clicked on static pictures of them, anyway), hunting for pixels to interact with, making notes with pencil and paper, and bashing our brains against a series of ridiculously obtuse puzzles. We never finished. It’s a little weird to be back in Myst in 2021, after all this time. Cyan Worlds has completely remade the game (again, following 2000’s realMyst and 2014’s realMyst: Masterpiece Edition, neither of which I played). And this new 3D Myst works on both desktop and in VR, so I got to spend time actually (virtually) walking around in it. As a remake, Myst is a faithful one, but maybe a bit too faithful. Cyan Worlds say it’s a “reimagined” Myst, but while it’s far more modern-looking it’s still almost exactly the same game. Myst, no matter how it looks in 2021, feels pretty outdated.

In case you haven’t had a chance to play one of the many versions of Myst in the past 28 years, the adventure game begins with you trapped on a strange island after reading a strange book. To gather the missing pages of the book and discover the story of the island and the family who once inhabited it, players need to solve elaborate puzzles that transport them to new islands, where they complete even more puzzles in order to return. There’s a bit of story and lore told through books, notes, and holograms (originally they were cheesy FMV, now they’re cheesy CG) but Myst is mostly built from puzzles, not stories.It is nice to be able to actually walk through the world this time, and for a while it’s novel experiencing a familiar place in a new way, wandering from puzzle to puzzle rather than just clicking on static images when I want to move around. At the same time it highlights how even a freshly rebuilt game can still feel a bit out of date because Myst is a lovely place, but it’s not a big place. Everything on the islands are just a few steps away from everything else, and after playing countless games set on islands over the years, especially other puzzle games like The Witness, the world of Myst today just feels… small. Shockingly small. Even under blue skies and the shining sun, playing Myst is like standing in an escape room where the boundaries are never more than a few feet away. The islands of Animal Crossing feel sprawling in comparison.Puzzles are just the same as they were in the original, though you can randomize them if you want to play again with a new challenge. As they did in 1993, the puzzles can be fairly straightforward, punishingly difficult, or somewhere in between. Since clues to the solution of a single puzzle may be located in several different areas, it’s an exercise in wandering around and staring at things, wandering some more and doing more staring, experimenting a little here and there, and then wandering back through everything again to see if there’s something you missed. I definitely don’t have the patience I once did for the rougher puzzles, and it’s a real challenge to flip through pages and pages of codes or push a button for the 120th time to see absolutely nothing useful happen without opening a browser and looking for a walkthrough.
