A wonderful return to a classic
If anyone has played the original PC game of Myst all those years ago, the Masterpeice edition is a wonderful return to the game. The 3D rendered world not only opens up the environments significantly, I feel like it makes the puzzles more accessable and less tedious to solve. And although the graphics are a definite improvement compared to the original, they still keep very true to the original design and atmosphere so as to not loose their vintage feel. For anyone who has never played Myst before, it is a puzzle point-and-click style game with a story largely told through writing and FMV cutsenes. It's definitely cheesy in many ways, but is still an engaging and well thought out story with lots of imagination. Please understand that this game was originally released in 1993, meaning that it won't be as long as a game typically is now (this game it about 10 hours long), and the flow of the game can be quite different than modern games, especially since it's a slower type puzzle game. Even so, the game still holds up in many ways with good storytelling and intuitive puzzles. The puzzles in particular are still very well made and integrate very well with the story. If a puzzle does stump you though, the game does have a good hint system. It's good because it doesn't just give you the answers right away, but rather trys to nudge you in the right direction first. In the end, if you're interested in playing Myst, this Masterpiece edition is a great way to play it. It is also very important to note that anyone with hearing impairments would have a hard time playing this game. Unfortunatly there are no subtitles to the FMV cutsenes, and one puzzle in particular is only sound based, making it impossible to solve (although the answer can be easily looked up if need be). Reguarding this Swich version in particular: There were few issues with this version, for the most part it ran just fine. The loading screens can take a bit, but it does load the entire map which you will be in for a few hours with no additional loads so I think that's fine. There was some minor slowdown in the Channelwood Age (I think because it is the biggest map), but it does not affect gameplay at all nor did it crash the game. I only had the game crash on me once during the very end when I was trying to get a bad ending. I'm not sure why, but I believe the game was trying to go the load screen anyway. Either way, I say the Switch version is fine to purchase and shouldn't be a problem for 98% of the game. TL;DR Myst is a great puzzle game with an engaging and imaginative story. The Switch version ran with very few issues and I would say is a good purchase. Also please not that if you are hearing impaired this game might not be for you.

An Outstanding Classic Puzzle Game
It's pretty amazing how well this game still holds up and how challenging the puzzles can be. The original came out 27 years ago so this is even more impressive. Obviously this is a remake with 3D graphics which allows you to have much more freedom of movement to immersive yourself. When you start the game you're thrown onto an island to explore. They've added a hint system to help stop any frustration you may have from getting stuck. You're smart though, so you won't need to use it, but it's nice that it's there. If you love figuring out complex puzzles and getting lost in another world, this could be a great game choice for you. I'm so glad this game got a limited retail release. I just hope the sequel is coming in the future.
