How it plays
How does Myst (USA) (En,Fr) (Rev 1) play?
Inspect Myst Island and the linked Ages, read journals, operate devices, and solve the mechanical puzzles that reveal routes and story information. The touch screen is used for scene navigation and for selecting and manipulating the objects needed by each puzzle.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Myst (USA) (En,Fr) (Rev 1)?
Treat the revision as the same puzzle structure but keep a save before a major code or machine change. Write down clues and compare them with the current scene; use a systematic route through each Age rather than revisiting every location at random.
