WOW! - Look At This, Myst Lovers....The Five Cores ***RELEASING SEPT. 2012*** Watch this great Environment Demo Video HERE

Can all the lovers of Myst rejoice in the soon to be released independent game The Five Cores (working title)? If the game plays as well as it looks I think so. Possibly releasing in a month or two. Take a look at the screenshots below (more on web site) and tell me your heart didn't skip a beat...


Quote:
STORY

You appear on a mysterious island and you find a letter from someone who implore your help. Their tragic fate led them into exile in another world. The dreams of a miracle child become real and cause the collapse of the world. You have to wake up the child with magic stones.



Quote:
The need to make a Myst-like game
Like many people I was amazed by Myst in 1993. This game had a unique ambiance, a feeling of total immersion and the rewarding side of the puzzle solving. This is the best selling game in the world until the release of The Sims in 2002. Subsequently, other Myst-like are came out but not so many. It is true that the design of this type of game is not the easiest thing to do and seduce the next generation of player seems very difficult. However, I think many people would like to see a rebirth of this kind of game. So I decide to create one by myself.. It’s not an easy thing to achieve but this could be the first step of a great journey. I hope.

Oh my. It looks positively enticing laugh

We'll have to wait and see. Myst was much more than pretty pictures, and we've had many attempts at a Myst revival which failed.

Yeah, this looks great! While the art isn't technically that great, it looks artistically very good. I look forward!

Oh thanks Greyfuss! These pics look awesome and take me back to Myst and Riven---hope this game comes out soon and that it has some of that same kind of magic that Myst did. smile

OH boy! looks good! Hope they do water as nice as in Riven-greatly enjoy moving water(if done well) in a game-also hope there is NO Jumping or Timed puzzles thrown in. Hope is good as Riven was AND long, long, long. Something we can get our notebooks out and use! Hope Lots and lots of places to explore and many NOT underground. So much enjoyed the first 3 'myst' games...the last 2 not much-awful drawing on a slate(how time consuming and irritating-almost made me stop playing that game completely), timed stuff that people with stiff joints had such awful problems with-why should you have to ask someone to come over and 'do' a puzzle for you??? pffuii If you are going to have those why not make it so that after several tries (timed or jumping)it auto solves? is that so hard to do??? And please let it be playable on a pc that is not brand spanking new (since most of us cannot afford them)or probably used by NASA. (Go Curiosity!!)
So hoping this finally another game (besides Boake's and Fisher III's) to look forward to playing!

Sorry. Just was one of those days of wishing for early Myst-like games and then Greyfuss just had to post about this new game, and.........
I am the 'nut' who keeps Riven on the pc and at the Lagoon area where you can go down those stone steps onto the beach and to the beautiful water, and see the Sunners. Is a mini-vacation for me! Games where you can really get immersed and enjoy the atmosphere are so, so,So, rare now.

I still have the Sunner poster by my pc. I see that image every day. Always loved teasing the Sunners. lol

I think its safe to say that they were inspired by all the Myst games. wink
