Myst III: Exile

Official fact sheet

Myst III: Exile transports players ten years forward in the Myst universe, where a new villain lies in wait. Saavedro, played by Academy Award nominee Brad Dourif (Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest), has been hiding on Atrus’ Ages, awaiting his chance to gain revenge upon Atrus and his family. Inadvertently, Atrus himself has provided that chance. He and Catherine have reestablished contact with the D’ni, a race of people whose knowledge enables them to write the special linking Books first encountered in Myst. Atrus hopes to see the D’ni civilization restored to its full potential, and his efforts to do so provide the perfect impetus for Saavedro to orchestrate his revenge. Players must track Saavedro through five surreal Ages, solving puzzles and uncovering the truth behind this new adversary and his devious plot. Only then can disaster be averted, and the fate of thousands ultimately determined?

Developed by Presto Studios, Myst III: Exile features five entirely new Ages for players to explore and hours of new mysteries to uncover. Myst III: Exile uses new navigational technology to bring the world alive without losing any of the artistic beauty or interactivity of the previous Myst games.
