    The best point-and-click adventure game available on the Xbox. Rabid Myst fans will want to play this on the PC but this is such a good port that, other than improved visuals, you'll be experiencing the Ages of Myst as they were intended to be explored.

    It's also one of the most visually stunning and aurally pleasing "classic" adventure games, since, well, ever.

    Just a poor shadow of what Myst really is, so most users would be better off skipping it and grabbing the PC/Mac version.
