The value story
It has been discounted 58 times in the 14 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 60 percent, about 12 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
It is pricier than 69 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 92 percent. Myst ($20.99, scores 51) outscores it, and so does Myst: Masterpiece Edition ($5.99, scores 66). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What players say
I loved this game in the end I felt sorry for the Bahro. I enjoyed all the ages. The only Myst I did not complete was the 4th one , I gave up on that stupid monkey puzzle but this game was fine and enjoyable.

This is a great solo no pressure game which allows for exploration, memory, solutions, and rewards.
After the years of using a great style and real actors, they just threw the true sole of myst away. Most of the Myst games are too confusing and annoying for me, but i really loved the true soul of the games, with the actors, the ages and the books. But for some reason now there is and alien species for some reason. It pretty much destoys the whole concept Myst had. But they held true to their confusing and annoying...
