Who here has played it?
It was one of the first videogames that I was exposed to as a child and I really liked it. I remember greatly enjoying the surreal landscapes as well as the thought provoking story line that you had to piece together.
Whenever I see the game mentioned, I get nostalgic and I've been seriously considering picking up the original trilogy and immersing myself in it again.

+1 to everything you just said.
Riven was alright. Myst III was awesome.

I remember being blown away at the time. I still have it, I haven't played it in forever.

I enjoyed playing it for awhile. I kind of lost interest when I got to a "puzzle" that was some stupid combination lock mechanism. I spent about 30 seconds and somehow guessed the right combination. That was about the point where I decided the graphics were cool, but the story/adventure sucked.
Not quite as large, but did you ever see the parody game, Pyst? Now available for a mobile device near you!

I felt that Pyst is a funny concept with awful execution.

I see what you did there.
I played the original Myst after someone in the family got it for Christmas and no one could get very far into it. It ended up with me. I took that as a personal challenge and beat it fairly quickly. I never played the other 2 installments though.
