My least favourite-and I think I may be in the minority here-was the Edanna age, which I found very confusing. And all this grooviness is surrounded by a giant roller coaster. On one side are giant sunken bones, on another layered hexagonal water pools with lapping water-which can even be seen gently lapping from a distance-and in the middle an Asian-style temple. The graphics are wonderfully ambient and tantalizing, with different and distinct surroundings rolled into one island.
Call me a Disneyphile, but I just love a good roller coaster ride, and this world delivers. So as the weary traveller sent to walk in Atrus’s moccasins you will need to find these symbols to defeat Saavedro in the final act.īy far my favourite of the three worlds was Amateria.
The pilgrimage he has concocted was meant for Atrus, a man he feels needs to learn a little bit more about nature, energy, and balance. You see, Saavedro isn’t your ordinary demented mad man making you sing for your supper he is also a teacher. Each has a number of tests and puzzles that you will have to solve in order to get its symbol, the reason you where sent to that world. To do this you must pass through three different ages: Voltanic, a dreary industrial-flavoured island Amateria, an Asian-inspired theme park type world and finally Edanna, a garden world blooming with trees and plants. Ok, turn the lights back on and lets continue.Īs you have saved Atrus’s keester on numerous occasions, he again looks to you for help to recover Releeshahn. Then just as he is about to toast his success, Saavedro pinches Releeshahn, bringing us to where we came in. In Releeshahn, he tries to create a place that will not suffer from the instabilities of so many of the other worlds he has written. Being the ever-powerful writer of worlds, Atrus decides to help them out by writing them a new home, Releeshahn. But now a new problem has come Atrus’s way: his people, the D’ni, have lost their home world and need a new one. Luckily, she was saved and Gehn was destroyed. Then Gehn, Atrus’s overly self-actualized father, swiped his wife and imprisoned her on Riven. In the beginning, Atrus and his wife Catherine had two sons, Sirrus and Achenar, who led a parade of destruction through a number of Atrus’s worlds before he imprisoned them both in books. And what better way to get revenge then to steal Releeshahn, the book-world Atrus has created for the D’ni? He’ll take Atrus’s precious book and make him suffer as he has.Īll right, for all those present who are Myst-impaired, let’s do a little catch-up before we proceed further. Thwarted in his plans to avenge himself upon the brothers, he decides to go after the next best thing, Atrus. Saavedro, a demented refugee of one of the worlds Sirrus and Achenar wreaked havoc upon, feels that caning followed by hanging would have been a much more appropriate fate. It seems that not all are happy with his decision to imprison his two errant sons in his books. Once again Atrus, that prodigious writer of worlds, is in trouble, and as his trusty right hand man/woman he once again turns to you for help.
