And you have good answers, again.
Thank you. Especially the menu question.
Take a second to fix. It was getting to be a real drag.
I've also started to explore Riven again. (as a new game)
But, as I explained to Gerry, I got no info about save/load/menu.
Methinks I'll be back with more questions.
Cheers

Robert. in Riven to save the game I think you have to press the CTRL+S to save a game.
To view the menu you click near the top of the computer screen.
Hope this helps.

Sorry about the goof.
Sande

Hi Sande
I'm happy to tell you that Myst 5 isn't the last one.
Myst 6 is called URU.
If you buy it as URU The Complete Chronicles, you get two extra AGES.
And I have to say it is the best, best Myst!
The concept of the Relto was just great!
Movement is complete 3D, and you can take PICTURES!
They are saved as .jpg files, and print really nice.
It's too bad they stopped at URU...
I can just imagine what a Myst 7 might have been like.
Cheers
Robar

Rogar, to expand on Kaki's Sister's comment, In Riven, when you move your mouse cursor to the top left of the screen (you may have to click) the menu shows up. Then just click File/Save and choose a name. Same deal for loading an old save... File/Load.... You also have some game options to choose up there.

I agree with Robar, URU is a dream game. I never get tired of it's beauty and freedom of movement.

Dadguy

Thanks Gerry
Thanks Dadguy
Goin' to Riven now.

Oh, by the way, can I use images here?
Like you can send pictures with an email?
Cheers

They don't "host" images here that I know of. The only way to include images in posts is to insert a link to a location for the image (like Photobucket, or Facebook, etc.)

Robar
Thank you so much re info for Myst. Next question. Where can I get the game.
Thanks
Sande

Sande,

I have seen them in brick and mortar storres and I think some online and download only games have them also.

MaG,
Thanks for the help. Found the site and just ordered the game.
Don't know what I'd do without you people. Thanks.
Sande

Enjoy the game when you play.

Hi Sande
You are in for a major Myst TREAT!
Uru is by far the best Myst crafted so far.
When you have finished the journey, you can revisit anywhere in it.
Easily my favourite Myst. It was just the best journey.
All the other Mysts lead up to URU ! Cyan should make #7 !
Can we pressure them ?
Cheers
Robar

Robert I agree. URU was a beautiful game. Full of adventure and exploring. You will have lots of enjoyment playing it Sande.

Robert how are you doing in Myst Revelation? I finished Spire and am now starting Serenia for the first visit. Had some trouble with the timed "chair" puzzle because I couldn't get the "hand" to grab the levers when I wanted.

I need some help re Myst V: Taghira. I'm having trouble trying to cross the lake. I'm sure I did the heat puzzle right as it is on the slate but I can't cross the lake. It wouldn't be on the slate if I hadn't done it correctly would it?
Thanks,
Sande

I solved the puzzle, but I didn't realize you can get the heat puzzle on the slate and have done the switches incorrectly.
Sande

Yay, Sande. I had written a big explanation about the valves and swithches but you solved it before I could post.

Have fun!

Hi Gerry
I havn't gone any further in Haven.
I started Riven anew, and kinda got sucked into it.
Of all the Myst Ages, Haven was the only one I disliked.
I found it to be kind of poorly done compared to all other Ages.
Actually, what I need is a new game. I've just ordered 4.
Amerzone / Echo / Egypt 1 + 2. Have you done any or all of them?
What's your all-time favourite post-Myst game?
Cheers
Robert

I have Amerzone but haven't played it yet. I'm not sure but I think I have Echo too. I'll have to check to see if I have Egypt 1 & 2. Can't remember!

Robert,

Please use the Adventure Discussion forum to talk about games. Here at Hints, we concentrate on game help only.
Thanks.

MaG
Sorry about that.
Forget were you are, and just babble on.
Cheers

No problem - nice to see that you enjoy playing games.
