I remember playing Myst when I was pretty young. I liked the graphics and the storyline a lot, even though I was too young to figure out the puzzles without help.

To the point, was Myst a good game for its time?

I thought the puzzles were tough, but fun. The story was pritty good espicly the whole "two brothers stuck in books and which ether you let out will still give you a bad ending". The whole problem was ther was no one there........I was so alone.

When you were "pretty young?"

Isn't Myst only two or three years old? o.O;

Myst was the first big CD-ROM game. Does 1993 sound like two or three years ago? I suppose you could say it's a testament to the longevity of its graphics and interface.

I liked the puzzles, but never got into the story. As a game of its time, it was a good point and click adventure, if a bit dry. The first person perspective was very immersive. I must be grateful to it for influencing the excellent Zork: Grand Inquisitor.
