Myst 4 bookshelf puzzle1/15/2024 ![]() ![]() I don't mind fucking complaining about Myst, or any of the problems I had with the sequels but for fuck's sake complain about the game's actual faults, not one you just pulled out of your ass: complaining about puzzles being illogical in a game when most of the shit is predictable, mechanical and with so many solutions spoon-fed to you just fucking baffles me. Or if you had to play it not in your native language and so didn't understand that first clue. Or that if you were hard of hearing, then you were fucking screwed on the Age connected to the spaceship, or that the maze was far too slow to navigate if you'd not done Ages in the right order and missed a clue (though that wasn't necessary to complete it), and was slow even when you know what you were doing. I mean, if you were to complain about the organ puzzle in the space ship being a pain in the ass because the input tended to slip a note if you weren't careful (at least, in the original version)l, that's one thing. The books in the libary - the ones you can read, anyway - do the rest. Doing that and exploring behind the bookshelf in the library, accessed by one of the other paintings, let's you in on the Tower of Clues that basically hand-holds you through getting into most of the other Ages.Clicking on it has an effect, just like every other painting in there seems to have, and its really obvious when something's happening. Look around the island and go into the library if you've not done so before there's a painting on there that says Tower Rotation.Watch a cutscene where you get informed about something called the Tower Rotation. Put this number into the machine in the chamber by the docks.For people like Zarniwoop who apparently struggle with counting: it's 8. Explore the island and count the Marker Switches.Find and read the super-obvious note, which tells you to count the number of Marker Switches on the island and put it into the machine in the chamber by the docks.Guess it has been a while since I played this, but I have the day off today so. That is the entire Myst experience.ĮDIT: Fuck you, now you made me install realMyst (PROTIP: be sure to run it with Windows XP SP 3 compatibility). But like all puzzles in Myst, if you do not know for sure what to do, you just need to look around more. Or, you do not even have to know the sound clues, and can completely map the area out. ![]() There is only ONE puzzle (yes ONE) that DOES have hints that are only available from another area (they are a sound clue that you can ONLY get from another Age). In fact, if anything, Myst has way too many clues telling you what to do (compared to say Riven, that shit sometimes got RAGE inducing.). Seriously, even the very fist puzzle in the game there is a gigantic hint on a note on what to do, and then there is even more hints that specifically show you what the map markers are, if you aren't sure what those are.
