Welcome to Myst: a starkly beautiful island, eerily tinged with mystery and shrouded in intrigue. Built from the ground up to play in 2D & VR, explore Myst in a whole new dimension! Journey to the Ages, unravel puzzles, and be a part of the surrealistic adventure that will become your own.
Before you press start
Play the numbered games in release order, because each one builds on the last. Riven follows directly from Myst. Uru is a side story from Cyan with a different feel, so it can wait until after the main line.
More than the main path
Myst drops you on an empty island with a linking book and no instructions. The series follows Atrus and the lost D'ni across worlds written into being, and every machine, journal and locked door is part of the story. Patience is the only skill it tests.

Riven: The Sequel to Myst is a graphic adventure puzzle game developed by Cyan and released in 1997. It continues the story of Myst, following the player’s journey to rescue Atrus’s wife, Catherine, from a decaying world. The game features pre-rendered environments with complex, interconnected puzzles and minimal direct guidance. Its visuals, sound design, and world-building were praised for their depth and realism. Riven expanded on Myst’s narrative and gameplay scale, becoming one of the most acclaimed adventure games of its time.
When the credits roll
The story of Myst continues in this third entry of the series, originally released in 2001. Return to this strange and wondrous universe, where books become portals into worlds, and where the lessons of the past may yet hold meaning for today...
