I played this at school with an awesome teacher who pretended it was educational. We looked up a cheat guide to beat it, though, because once we did, our next up game was Warcraft 2.

33 years ago today, the Stranger stepped onto the dock of Myst Island for the first time. We can still hear the water splashing against the pilings.

My friend got this, and he went away for the weekend, and I watched his place while he was gone, and solved it over the weekend. I kept notes and mapped out many of the puzzles. He couldn't believe I solved it in a weekend, till he saw my notes.

I used cheat guides too. I've always been SO impatient with puzzles, and I really just wanted all the vibes and story. It barely ran on my home computer. I would actually count it as educational if there was any talk whatsoever about how to think around problems.

I was in 7th grade, so not exactly the most patient at the best of times, and mostly certainly not when an M-rated fantasy warfare game was the reward for beating it.
