It's time for a new look, and the Myst Masterpiece Edition won't disappoint. Both newcomers and old hands will appreciate the improved graphics and sounds in this imaginative and popular game. For those who haven't heard, Myst is an interactive game world set on a lush island that poses problems to solve; as you learn more about the world you're in, more locations open up to you, and ultimately, exploration becomes an end in itself. Imagine that--a wildly fun, addictive computer game without killing or tedious competition. Millions of people snapped up the original Myst and spent hours discovering the intricate secrets of this new world, and the update will appeal to them as much as to the first-timer. Besides the improvements to the look and feel of the game, there is a new DigitalGuide that provides hints to the terminally stuck--very nice for that one puzzle that refuses to bow to your superior mind. Completing the package is Myst: The Book of Atrus, a "prequel" novel to the game written by designers Rand and Robyn Miller with David Wingrove. This fascinating fantasy explores and explains much of the background underlying the world they created, and will appeal most to those who have played for a few hours. Whether you've never experienced the richness of Myst or you want to dive back in, the Masterpiece Edition will take you somewhere new. --Rob Lightner Amazon.com Product Description: Journey to an island world surrealistically tinged with mystery, where vibrant rocks, scraps of paper, and sounds hold vital clues to the unraveling of a chilling tale of intrigue and injustice that defies all boundaries of time and space. Only your wits and imagination will serve to stay the course and unlock the ancient betrayal of ages past. Like real life, you don't die every five minutes. In fact, you probably won't die at all. Pay attention to detail and collect information because those are the pieces of the puzzle you'll use to uncover the secrets of Myst. The key to Myst is to lose yourself in this fantastic virtual exploration and act and react as if you were really there. And in case you get stuck, this special Myst Masterpiece Edition features your very own DigitalGuide, offering advice, updating your experience in real-time, and providing assistance based on your skill level. Myst is even more enjoyable and less intimidating than ever. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Vibrant, creative and originalI originally picked this game up when it first came out. I remember how many people raved about its originality and its amazing game play. Compared to other games I've played in that era I definitely have to agree that it was very original. I must've been about eleven or twelve when it was first released. I will admit that while playing this game as a kid I couldn't figure anything out and I played it for many hours scratching my head trying to figure it out. Eventually I got to the point where ... Read More Rating:  - Fantastic Game, Sorely OutdatedI played the original Myst on a Windows 3.1 oh so many years ago, and I loved it. I know this is for Windows 95/98, but Windows XP does have compatibility options. Unfortunately, they don't work. The sound is scratchy, the movies don't play right, the game crashes inconsistently. If you have Windows XP, chances are this game will not work on your computer. It was a great game, but unless you have an ancient PIII 400 MHz, I think you're out of luck. Rating:  - Cool game but needs more to itI think the Myst Masterpiece Edition is a pretty cool game, but it needs better graphics. RealMyst is much better. I just find the Myst Masterpiece Edition not realistic enough. Rating: - "the name of the game is the same"a famous quote(too bad i forgot the author), but the meaning hits home. a fancy-dancy box combined with a fancy-dancy name gives us the "masterpiece" edition. digitally remastered this, digitally remastered that(yada yada yada). after i saved the princess, the game was considered over (oops wrong game) but i think you can see the comparitive logic. this game is only recommended for somone that never played myst before, i mean, how many times can you solve a puzzle if you already know the solution ?? ...
