    The best point-and-click adventure game available on the Xbox. Rabid Myst fans will want to play this on the PC but this is such a good port that, other than improved visuals, you'll be experiencing the Ages of Myst as they were intended to be explored.

    It's a Myst game any fan should play or to see how the story family turns out.

    A few imperfections aside, the game is an enjoyable experience for those willing to put up with its slow pace and vast locales.

    Myst IV will push your puzzle-solving skills to the limit.

    It has a well told story and the environments are beautiful to behold.

    Just a poor shadow of what Myst really is, so most users would be better off skipping it and grabbing the PC/Mac version.

    It's not as if the game itself is bad, it's that the technology is so horribly mangled that the delicious puzzle-laden universe is almost unplayable on Xbox. [June 2005, p.132]

    I love, when people say - hey, this game is bad, because puzzles are difficult... I mean.. Be smarter, dude, and your life will change! In theI love, when people say - hey, this game is bad, because puzzles are difficult... I mean.. Be smarter, dude, and your life will change! In the Myst series it's probably the third place after Riven and the first Myst, I love the plot, and it's definitely much harder, then original Myst, which is great, of course.… Expand
