4.0 out of 5 stars The world of Myst, but not the feel of Myst, April 11, 2005
By 
St. Chris (Browns Mills, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Real Myst (CD-ROM)
It's kind of neat and novel, as a longtime fan, to freely wander and explore the worlds of Myst in real-time 3D. But when it comes to actually playing the game, I still prefer the original Mac version (NOT the "Masterpiece" version, which I've also reviewed here on Amazon).

Movement through the 3D world isn't always smooth. The camera often doesn't point in an appropriate direction. (When you ascend a spiral staircase in real life, you keep your eyes pointed up the stairs, don't you? This doesn't.) You sometimes become frustratingly stuck because the computer thinks you shouldn't be able to move at the exact angle you want to travel in. And you automatically move at a surprisingly brisk pace, as if you were always running; following the original game's instructions to act as if you were really there, I'd be moving a lot more slowly and cautiously.

The original had a timeless, artistic quality which is lost in this 3D version. Each scene was like a carefully-composed photograph or painting; now it's less of a gallery and more like, well, a first-person shooter without the shooter.

Recommended for dedicated Myst fans, or for anyone who can't find (and use) either the original Mac version (best) or the PC Masterpiece version (second best). But by no means is it the ultimate Myst experience.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's nice to go back..., July 15, 2002
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Real Myst (CD-ROM)
It's funny what ten years of technology can do to an idea. I know people are tired of new versions of Myst (Masterpiece Edition, Special Edition, DVD, sequels, etc.) but this one really the best. If your computer can push the pixels the game really moves ahead of the pack. It looks great, even compared with the more recent rerendered versions. It gives you a genuine sense of place that was missing from previous attempts, and it runs on my old G3 Mac.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even better in 3-D!, July 28, 2004
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Real Myst (CD-ROM)
I played this game first on my Mac LC-III and loved it. It is still my favorite computer game. I just played this version on my g4 iMac and it's even better than before. This is the ideal game for people who don't want to shoot, kill, die, etc., but love solving puzzles.
