Rand also worked on the game's sequel, Riven, and later Myst III: Exile, Myst IV: Revelation, Myst V: End of Ages, realMyst, and Uru.

As a sideline, he is found portraying the role of Atrus in the Myst sequels, some of which were created by other companies, including Myst III: Exile ( by Presto Studios ) and Myst IV: Revelation ( by Ubisoft Montreal ).

Presto Studios was a computer game development company of the 1990s, especially famous for its award-winning The Journeyman Project series and the 2001 sequel to Cyan's hit Myst series, Myst III: Exile.

While the preceding games in the series, Myst and Riven, were produced by Cyan and published by Brøderbund, Exile was developed by Presto Studios and published by Ubisoft.

Exile was received well by critics ; British newspaper The Daily Telegraph called it the best game in the Myst series.

Conversely, long-time critics of the series complained that Exile continued to prove that Mysts slower gameplay did not belong in the fast-paced modern game market ; GameSpot editor Greg Kasavin described the Myst series as having lost its relevance.

Despite selling more than one million units within the first year of release, Exile fared poorer commercially than Myst and Riven, which had sold more than 10 million units combined.

Reviewers who had not enjoyed Myst or Riven stated that there was nothing new or substantially different in the game to warrant interest ; The New York Times observed, " Exile has everything you loved or hated about Myst and Riven.

The Stranger in the Myst franchise is such a character.

* In the Myst series of computer games and books, the only way to destroy the link to an Age is to destroy its Descriptive Book, usually by burning it.

In the 1993 adventure PC game Myst, the unnamed protagonist travels to multiple alternate worlds through the use of special books, which describe a world within and transport the user to that world when a window on the front page is touched.

Uru: Ages Beyond Myst is an adventure video game developed by Cyan Worlds and published by Ubisoft.

Released in 2003, the title is the fourth game in the Myst canon.

Uru is a departure from previous Myst games in that it takes place from a third-person view and uses real-time rendering in contrast to pre-rendered environments.

Uru: Ages Beyond Myst is a puzzle-adventure game that takes place on worlds known as Ages.

Uru is a revolutionary adventure game that takes the best qualities of the Myst franchise and makes them even better.

As in Myst and Riven, the developers used live-action sequences instead of computer-generated actors and props ; Irish stated that using computer graphics would have reminded players they were in a game, " which would wreck the immersion that is so critical to the Myst games ".

GameSpot editor Greg Kasavin told Time magazine that " Myst is no longer as relevant to gamers as it used to be " and that " it represents an antiquated style of gaming " compared to the 3-D action games being released at the time.

Myst IV: Revelation is the fourth installment in the Myst computer game series, developed and published by Ubisoft.

He claims that he dislikes this job and feels he is the wrong person to do it, but does so because changing the actor for such a major role in the game would have caused uproar in the Myst community.

Pyst Island is full of litter, most of the buildings are ruined, and graffiti reveals secret doors and solutions to puzzles that challenged players in Myst.

Gameplay is a simplified version of the playing-style used in Myst.

The game is reminiscent of the Myst series of games ( especially Riven ) in that the environment is rendered very realistically and in exceptionally high detail.

Movement and interaction in the game is very similar to that in the Myst games.

Cyan began developing Uru shortly after completing Riven in 1997, leaving future Myst sequels to be produced by third party developers.

The creators of the Myst franchise gave the task of creating the third Myst game to Presto Studios, known for its adventure game series The Journeyman Project.

A core team from Presto Studios held discussions which analyzed Myst and Riven, then set out specific goals for the third game.

The music for Myst and Riven was composed by Robyn Miller ; Jack Wall created the score for the third installment.

The building Homer encounters inside the third dimension is a recreation of the library from the PC game Myst accompanied with the library's theme music briefly playing in the background, Willie changing shapes while sinking in the sand box is similar to the T-1000's " death " in Terminator 2: Judgement Day and Martin's dream references The Pagemaster.
