Myst is a foundational first-person puzzle-adventure game where you play as an unnamed traveler, known as the Stranger, who discovers a mysterious book that transports you to a desolate, beautiful island. By exploring the environment and solving intricate logic-based puzzles, you uncover the story of Atrus, a man who can write books that serve as portals to other worlds called "Ages," and his two sons, Sirrus and Achenar, who are trapped in a library and claim their father has been murdered. Unlike typical games of its era, it features no combat or player death, instead focusing on slow-paced observation and note-taking to piece together a non-linear narrative through journals and environmental clues.
