I love all three games in this series. I had no problem running Myst and Riven with Windows XP on my computer. However, there is a bit of a problem with Exile in that it will repeatedly crash in certain areas. I uninstalled and reinstalled it; making sure to backup my saved games. It is a pain, though. From what I understand, this isn't exclusively an XP problem.

I bought the Myst Trilogy. I was curious to see what it was all about. Before I bought it I looked over the reviews and found that many people loved the game. I decided to try and I'm glad that I did. I loved this game. I like games where you have to solve logical puzzles. I read in someone elses review that the puzzles were way to hard to solve and they weren't that difficult. True, some were tedious but hey you get through them. When I finally got towards the end of the game I was surprised to find out that both of brothers lock you in the books. I was fooled by both of them.(Yeah went through the game 3 times to see the different outcomes but had all of my clues to manuever quickly through the game.) Well anyway I'm playing Riven now and the graphics are just awesome can't wait to get to Exile. But it's different how you interact with people in Riven whereas in Myst you are alone most of the time.
Noooo....puede ser...

No puede ser semejante juego tan malo....No soy aficionado a los juegos de aventura pero Syberia y Grim Fandango me parecen geniales...Pero este....en trilogia si dejenme decirle que es una farsa...Ni se les ocurra comprar este juego... Necesita quicktime...y consiste en hacer click sobre imagenes y estan van cambiando...acercandose, no hay sensación de movimiento...aunque dice que tiene vision 360 grados...pero esto no es un juego. Las imagenes son buenas pero es simplemente la superposicion de imagenen al hacer click....noooo que desilución tan gigante.

I've read some reviews from people that say they got it to run on XP. How? I have run the compatibility wizard--more like a compatibility trickster--and it still doesn't work. What I've SEEN of it is excellent (artistry is stunning; plot, so far, is great), but it quits when I get to the part where the player goes to another age. I loaded it onto the dinosaur of a computer that has Windows 98 on it, and it worked, except the computer is so ancient it's too slow to keep the graphics up with the sound and it gets stuck.
Somebody help me? If you've got a suggestion (a solution would be nice), pleeeeease e-mail me at: sindar_gloriel@mailpuppy.com And this is the new version of the original Myst, if that makes any sense. I looked for patches--couldn't find any. I've heard some horror stories about tech support from UBI software, too.
Please don't reveal suprise endings!

The game is classic and beautiful. By the way, isn't there any way to delete reviews by those unbelievably misguided people who post suprise endings and outcomes as in the below review?

Well, the product description says the set is both PC and Mac compatible. So I bought it as a Christmas present for my daughter. Lo and behold! Upon opening the box we discovered that the first game (Myst) is PC-compatible only. The other two games will work on the Mac. But why would anyone package a three-game set and advertise it as Mac-compatible when only two of the games can be used? Talk about stupid. So the set is going back. And I've got a disappointed daughter. Thanks, UbiSoft.

If you have the time to immerse yourself in a 40-60 hour puzzle, these are the games for you. Great graphics, wonderful puzzles. Not for the dim-witted....
