Subject: [6-2] Books
Date: 05/01/96

(1) From the WWW site :

There is a book called "Myst Official Game Secrets Hint Book" from Broderbund
Software. It contains hints, tips and strategies to solve puzzles, and includes maps, screen shots, a walkthrough, exclusive overhead views, and background on the story.

Check out the web site for ordering information.

(2) Myst: The Book of Atrus

Doug Ingram has a review of this excellent reading material, please refer to the section on "Hints".

First off, any Myst fan should really check out the Book of Atrus novel.
Very well written, great story, and it fills in a lot of the background to what happens in the game, as well as offering many a tantalizing hint to the plot of "Myst II".

You'll also find out all about the 5th World of Ghen (seen in the calendar).

Subject: [6-3] Myst Audio Soundtrack
Date: 01/07/96

(Quite empty)

As someone noted in c.s.i.p.g.a., this redbook audio compact disc (CD) is a good souvenir for those who have played Myst. This section aims to list out the soundtracks' titles and descriptions.

I would love to purchase one myself, but I don't have a credit card to order from my place of residence.

Subject: [6-4] Myst Calendar 1996
Date: 02/17/96

From Mark H. DeForest (edited):

Actually, a number of the images in the calendar are "custom made". Because all the screen shots for Myst are rendered from 3-D models, it's *real* easy to change the position of the camera, change the position of the sun and re-render a new image. (My personal favorite is looking down at Stoneship from above the telescope.)

Sources say that the sequel to Myst, "Myst II", will be out by next Christmas in 1996. However, this is a tentative date, so please be patient. Note that
"Myst II" is not the official title of the sequel.

However, it is later known that Cyan plans to release "Myst II" next year, in the summer of 1997. Refer to this web site for the full report:
