And now the game is multiplayer.
UruLive. It's back. Again.
Now you'll have help with those ridiculous puzzles.

You know Esher pronounces D'ni like "duck-knee"?

I love this game. Unfortunately, I played it when I was too young/dumb to tie my own shoes, and now my disc won't work because of my (slightly) SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY.

Oh my gosh. Ah ha ha ha! XD you tottally summed up Myst and how I feel about it.
It bothers me that people can't just enjoy the world of Myst just for the fact of wandering and finding things out! Everyone I've showed it too has just gone 'um, so what does it /do/???'. *facepalm* Its called thinking people.

I wonder if the riddles are harder than in silent hill? After playing 2nd game I dont think anything will surprise me now XD

Myst was my first computer game, and I loved it. This was an epic nostalgic comic for me, never got to play the sequels, though...

I haven't played the fourth one, and I really really hated the fifth one. But the first three were amazing--personally my favorite was the third, but the first one ran such a close second they might as well be tied.
The sketches are simple, but fun, and yes, I recall I did have to consult guidebooks for all three. And I do have a friend who mocks me for liking the Myst games ><;;;;; but really, until I discovered Legend of Zelda (insert gasp here) the Myst games were my favorite games ever. I tend to like puzzle-oriented games for some reason ^___^ But thank you, this cartoon embodies, in just a few quick panels, everything that is Myst. (And homicidal brothers ftw! XD)

never really thought of it like that

I don't know why, but every time I see the second panel...the "BLUH!" makes me actually "lol"! It's amazing how a little simplified person like that can do such a thing!

Incredibly funny ! Plus, that game was absolutely fantastic. It was pure genius. It IS pure genius, in fact, since it still exists, and was ported to iPhone for example.

This is actually soooo true! XD Lol to all the other Myst fans and Myst addicts! ^^

Panel 7 is so very... very true. I know this because I asked my uncle, who is also a gamer, to order Revelations for me online and I had to sit and listen to him go on and on about how Myst is only for losers and how I must not be a proper gamer.
He's very mature for a 44 year old, don't you agree? :3

Much love to this comic. I never got to play the game myself, but I spent a lot of time watching my brother play.

Ha! But.... I could never really figure out what the heck to do for the first part.... I walk around flipping switches and making the dentist's room shiny. OH! And I can sit in the fireplace! That was fun... for five minutes. I'm better for sudoku.

I would SO go to Myst for vacation.

it should just be panal 4 cause all you do is just get stuck in that game

I was stuck in the underground are for the longest time, EVERYTHING LOOKS THE SAME!

Odd that I bought RealMyst for probably no more than $20 a couple years back and now it seems like you can only find if for $50 or more. Are they not aware that it's a Windows 98 game (but it works fine in XP)???

I want to play this game so much, but my computer won't support it! 
BTW the proper spelling in the third panel (I believe) is "Puf", however Poof is good too.

LOL! I have no idea what games you're on about, but they just make me laugh sooo so sooooooo much!
HURRAH FOR EXCELLENT STICK MEN!

I'm going to guess that looking in the Myst guide was that rocket thing with the organ? I could never figure that out....lol
I let both the brothers out...then they made me cry....then I ran to there dad...and was like OH WHAT THE...ANOTHER BOOK? lol

Loved the 30'ties frankenstein refenrence. ^^
Myst is beautiful. (and incredibly boring, but that may be just me. I was more into monkey Island.)

When MYST was released here I guess I renember there was the following warning in the box:
"MYST: Don't play it if your IQ is lower than 120."

I started playing these games as a kid. Got kind of far in the first one, gave up. Then picked it back up when they released Exile. Exile, in my opinion is the best one of the 5. The little mouse creature is love.
haven't finished the 5th one yet. >3>
I've played a couple of the Uru games...haven't finished them either. I think they deviated too much from Myst.
But this cartoon embodies all the feelings of Myst. I'm so booking a trip to the island.

Myst Exile is my favorite, too.

Every one of those games was so f**king surreal and awesome! ...I say awesome a lot.

I love Myst. I remember years ago trying to play it with my sister. but we were both young and couldn't figure anything out. then I think it was a year or 2 ago, I got an urge to play old pc games that are on my families old PC (Windows 95). I was now older and wiser.... but still couldn't figure certain parts out. Thank god for the internet and video game walkthroughs. For the most part I tried to figure out a lot of it on my own, but certain parts I used a guide to help me solve a puzzle or point me in the right direction to continue one and keep trying to figure stuff out.
I've also played Myst 2: Riven. and I should have Myst 3: Exile somewhere in my house, but it and Riven and a disc with RealMyst has gone missing (they were all in a box set thingy)
But anyway, yeah I can relate to panel 1, 3, 4, and 5. I will never let my tongue touch my mouse, I had no idea about the D'ni, I dont talk to people much so 7 doesn't work, and I wouldn't be willing to buy an expensive plane ticket to a tiny little island that I can happily explore on my pc.

Oh my goodness. Myst. I remember starting it. And giving up. And starting. And giving up. At some point my little brother started it. And gave it up. Then I stumbled upon the books. Afterwards I started the game. And gave up. And so forth. Maybe one day I will finish one of them.

i heart myst! i cant get past the second one though but they are beautiful games and very complex - lots of thinking ^_^

Lulz.
I never played Myst. but Riven fucked me up.
Bad.

Wait, this is a game? I've read the books. . .
I want this now. . .

My dad got this for me as a joke when I was like...11 or something...he told me I wouldn't be able to beat it so I played it all the time just to spite him... I only beat it cause I used the guide thingy...*sighs* and feels nostalgic...
π: 0 β©: 0
God, I suck at Myst. I was able to beat Myst 4 (at least I think it was 4) and none of the others. I love the games though.
π: 0 β©: 0
Lol, Myst is excellent in every way. I'm surprised so many people don't like it purely because they have no patience. I amanged tog et msot of the way through the first without a guide, then the number 5 square came into play and that quote was exactly what I said. Still, the difficulty is all part of the game as is the surrealness and the confusing aspects. ^_^
π: 0 β©: 0
Hell yeah. I love the myst series. I have Myst 1-5. The first is the best and I totally agree with number 5.
π: 0 β©: 0
Ahaha this is brilliant! It is so true. I especially like number 5 (I totally did that when I played it)) and Sirrus and Aganar's insults.
And yes, I definitely want to visit Myst. That would be epic.
π: 0 β©: 0
THAT WOULD BE FUCKING AWESOME IF THAT ISLAND EXISTED!!!
Wait, there's more than one Myst game?

is the seventh panel an allusion to brave new world?

I liked the RealMyst demo pretty good. I even bought Myst 1 through three from a Thrift store I work at. Pity only three works on OS X. Now, if only all the games were made 3D like RealMystβ¦
