Maybe there was a second step?Ĭurious, I walked back to get a better view. I flipped the switch, stopping the steam from the top and sending a hissing sound up the pipe, but the bridge didn't move. The bridge in question was pretty easy to see from where I stood. This one had a symbol of a bridge on it, something about raising and lowering. The walkway simply led to an exit on the other side of the dome, and I stepped outside into the sea air. But I can't see that from here, so its time for more exploring.
Now what exactly all that meant I still have no idea, but this giant edifice is connected to something out there. Five pipes radiating outwards from the center. The walkway curved a bit and went lower, from here I could also get a good look at the device in the center of the room. I had seen these square symbols before, in the stained glass depiction of the wise men. I had also been able to do some thinking while I resting my legs. It didn't do anything when I turned it, but the rails on the sides suggested that this side would lift up. The door behind me had some kind of switch next to it. While I've been sitting here I noticed something. And it was an odd multiverse to begin with.
RIVEN WALKTHROUGH FOREST ISLAND SERIES
And funnily enough, the parts of the series that people don't seem to get on with so much (3 onwards) are the parts that start showing that no, Atrus and his ilk are by no means the only folks dealing with Linking Books. One of these days, I'm gonna have to do a tabletop or something in the Myst multiverse, because hot-drat, there's some serious weirdness going on there. Still, got a lot of love for this game, and the series in general, although I do have to check out Complete Uru when I get a chance. After all, it is one big area, and, as others have pointed out, while the puzzles are logical, and there is a good progression path, the hints aren't always clear about what they point to. The random people that are hanging around in the community area are pretty good about doing the "2nd player" tasks for anyone who asks.Īahh, much love to Riven, whose sprawling complexity actually gave it the reputation (And rightly so) of being the hardest in the whole series.
They reworked the Path to the Shell stuff to make it single-player for Complete Chronicles. As for the puzzles requiring multiple people, that's how it originally was. I know when it first went back online there were issues due to the different engine, but I replayed everything a few months ago and had 0 physics issues. I think they might have changed the physics engine at some point to a better one. Not sure if this is worth ignoring the fact it's free, but it is overall a worse experience (unless one is strictly interested in the online part). There's also even less of a story, and at least one puzzle has been reworked to require at least two people. It has a different physics engine, which makes the physics puzzles far worse.
