MYST T-1501G JAP IMPORT SEGA SATURN JSS

You have just come across a most intriguing book, a book called Myst. You have no idea where it came from, who wrote it, or how old it is. Reading its pages gives you only a description of an island world. But it's only a book, isn't it? At the end of the book, you put your hand on a page. Suddenly, your own world dissolves into black, replaced by the island world depicted in the pages. Now you are here, wherever you are, with no choice but to explore.

Myst is a first-person point-and-click adventure where the player controls a character known as The Stranger. Magically transported to the world described in the book, he must explore Myst Island and solve its mysteries. The game is presented as a series of static scenes where the player interacts with the environment by clicking and manipulating objects. There are no enemies and it is not possible to die. Across Myst Island, the game is further divided into mini-worlds set at different ages accessible through different books.

The game interface is reduced to a single cursor for navigation and interaction. Rather than collecting items and using them to solve puzzles, the player must piece together subtly placed clues and manipulate complex mechanical devices in order to advance through the game. The world of Myst is mostly uninhabited and the game features very few live action scenes with characters and dialogues.
