Nevertheless, Myst V: End of Ages is an impressive gaming achievement. It explores the possibilities of what can be done with a puzzle in an adventure game and for that alone, it should be experienced. The Ages are gorgeous, though not as large as those in Uru. And the game itself is fairly short in length, compared to the massive undertaking of Riven.

Ultimately, Cyan hasn’t let Myst go out with a bang, not even a whisper, but with a little squeal of joy. Honestly, I hope that one day we will see another addition to this franchise, not for my own fangirlish reasons, but so that we can continue to see how Myst pushes the envelope.

Thanks for the memories, Cyan
