Bug in Channelwood: if you reenter Channelwood to collect the colored pages, the door to the spiral staircase will be shut as well as all elevators leading to the upper level will be out of reach. That makes access to the upper levels, and hence the pages, impossible. If I'm not mistaken, it could even prohibit you from finishing the game. This bug should be fixed, but it's probably too late to ask for a fix after all these years. Otherwise, nice classic game.

The story is compelling and the sceneries especially garner curiosity and awe, tying one into Myst's world. The puzzles vary from modest to crafty with the use of even audial and chronal elements. Frustrations weren't a worry with some patience and thought since the solutions oft came from discrete, rarely obscure sources. The controls may be odd; however, I found it barely affected my experience, if at all. Overall it was a delight playing, and I would do so all over again if I could forget.

I was mesmorized by this game as a kid back in the 90's and it still stands the test of time today! Re-playing it brought back so much nostalgia. The puzzles were still quite challenging, even for my 37 year old self, but well worth figuring out. Such an original storyline and beautiful design! This is a great re-make. I saw some other reviews listing bugs in the game, but I didn't experience any issues whatsoever. Very smooth gameplay with easy controls and fast loading. Highly recommended!!
