Having finsihed Myst, Riven, Exiles and just now Revelation, here are my thoughts without spoilers: From the 5 games, this is the 2nd most difficult Myst game that I have played so far, only missing End of Ages. You will get stuck a few times and for the first time, I felt at times that certain puzzels would be impossible, I felt hopeless at times, unsure if I could complete them. The urge of looking up a guide hit me a few times, but thankfully I never gave in. Like with Riven, you have to be extremely vigilant, however, if you do get stuck, the game is forgiving to some degree that you can choose alternative routes, as you can change up the order in the way you wish to tackle the Ages, so you can mix things up a bit if you end up getting stuck. Story was good like with all the Myst games, I personally very much like all the characters. As you play each of these games in order, you will notice the technical improvements with each new title, so Revelation is of course more refined than Exile, however, I must say I had some crashes, seemed to be memory related, but thankfully it was not to bad. I look forward to continuing this epic adventure with Myst V: End of Ages.

I couldn't really get into this one. The beginning drags quite a lot and honestly made me more bored than anything. The pendant mechanic was also really unfun and kind of went against the appeal of Myst as a series to me. Myst strives on it's environmental storytelling, so having these audio log style mechanics broke my immersion, quite a lot. The puzzle design isn't as strong. And this might just be me, but I actually think this game looks worse than previous installments. It has its moments, but I was pretty disappointed, overall.

This is the worst - by far the worst - of the Myst series as far as I am concerned. The first part of the game was pretty enjoyable, but the closer I got to the end the more tedious the tasks became and had nothing to do with cognition, but rather a grim determination to complete tasks that were bordering on near impossibility due to a combination of poor color definition and a problem with cursor control that made a lot of the tasks hit or miss at best. I would literally do tasks 10, 20 or more times before it would 'register' as being correct even though on the face of it I was doing the exact same thing every time. Extremely frustrating and did not reflect anything like the amount of effort required to complete the game. In fact, I reached the end of my patience and finally gave up at the final tasks. It isn't like I have a tin pot PC or something - take a look at my specs. To top it all off I spent a couple of days 'fixing' a problem with the game crashing at onset until I finally resolved it by switching on HDR in my display specs. HDR???? Makes no sense to me as the game is hardly high def, but it actually resolved the problem. Not worth the effort.

Uh... Just no. I got to a part where you are supposed to translate book titles by hand based on blurry images that are rotated sideways. No thanks. This is way worse than all previous Myst games. It was unforgiveable. They knew it was bad and there is a Prima™ guide built into the game as an answer to the bad design. I had some issues with some of the puzzles in previous Myst games, but this one just got too monotonous. This is a game where you are going to want to go full walkthrough from start. So far the problem I have with the puzzles is not that they are confusing, it's that once you figure them out they are monotonous. I don't want to spend forever writing translations for letters in an alphabet where I have to use a reference just to look up what the letter is, and on top of that all the letters look too similar. I'm not even spoiling anything. This is like the third puzzle in the game. It still feels like it's part of the tutorial at this point. Unless you are set on completing the Myst series, just pass on this one.

Myst IV: Revelation was a magnificent and nostalgic trip down memory lane for me. This chapter brilliantly resolves many of the saga’s long-standing lore questions with a stunning, cinematic approach. The storytelling is so powerful that it makes you truly appreciate every intricate puzzle, guiding you through a journey elevated by a monumental and deeply moving soundtrack. I highly recommend this experience, but with one essential caveat: to fully appreciate its depth, you absolutely must start from the very first chapter.

Nach dem Myst und Riven Remake und Myst 3 habe ich mich schon auf den nächsten Teil gefreut. Aber dieses Spiel macht so einfach keinen Spaß. Hinweise wo man nachher eine Erklärung braucht wieso das ein Hinweis war sind nicht wirklich hilfreich. Geschicklichkeit und Zeitlimit bei manchen Rätseln machen es auch nicht einfacher. Hatte Potential aber leider kein positver Abschluss.

Little warning first, you'll want to use the fan-made patch that fixes the very long loading screens! https://github.com/tomysshadow/M4Revolution/releases Myst: IV Revelation is probably the most uneven in the series. Beautiful graphics, impressive production value, lots of actors, many cutscenes, Ages full of life and great art direction, and an amazing, amazing soundtrack by Jack Wall. The story is a letdown for some people; but although it's a little bit campy at the end I think it's pretty good overall. The main issue lies with the puzzles which are often frustrating, too difficult, and do not really make sense in the context of the story. Even with the frustration, I still love this game and its characters and never skip it when I'm replaying through the series.
