From the Manual on the CD:

You have just stumbled upon a most intriguing book, a book titled Myst. You have no idea where it came from, who wrote it, or how old it is. Reading through its pages provides you with only a superbly crafted description of an island world. But it’s just a book, isn’t it?

As you reach the end of the book, you lay your hand on a page. Suddenly your own world dissolves into blackness, replaced with the island world the pages described. Now you’re here, wherever here is, with no option but to explore....

A MESSAGE FROM CYAN

You are about to be drawn into an amazing alternative reality. The entire game was designed from the ground up to draw you in with little or no extraneous distractions on the screen to interfere with the feeling of being there. Myst is not linear, it’s not flat, it’s not shallow. This is the most depth, detail and reality you’ve ever experienced in a game.

Myst is real. And like real life, you don’t die every five minutes. In fact you probably won’t die at all. There are no dead-ends, you may hit a wall, but there is always a way over or around. Pay attention to detail and collect information, because those are the pieces of the puzzle that you’ll use to uncover the secrets of Myst. The puzzles you encounter will be solved with logic and information – information garnered either from Myst or from life itself. The key to Myst is to lose yourself in this fantastic virtual exploration, and act and react as if you were really there.
