Really? That's a bold statement. I don't agree with it, but it's bold nonetheless.
There's going to be some big publishers out there who will want to do this [too]. There's big money here for them. And I don't think they went after it.
Off the top of my head I can think of 'The 7th Guest'. There were plenty of rendered CD-ROM games just none as successful as 'Myst'.
- seany 13y agoI actually preferred The 7th Guest to Myst. It was a much darker game though, which probably hindered it's popularity with some people. The music/sfx in it were fantastic imho.
- Dove 13y agoIf you liked Myst and 7th Guest, you should take a look at The Room, a game that I would say is somewhere between the two both in tone and in puzzle style and intensity. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.FireproofStudios.TheRoom https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.FireproofS...
- jevinskie 13y agoThe 7th Guest also had a story where you interacted with the multitude of other people in Stauf's mansion. In Myst, your brief interactions were with two dudes in books. You were very alone in Myst, not as much in the 7th Guest.
- devindotcom 13y agoIn a certain abstract sense, blockbuster games of previously unacclaimed genres all enable one another. Without Super Mario Bros 3, there would be no Myst, if you look at it from that angle. Yet without D&D, there would be no Super Mario Bros. And without Tolkien, there would be no D&D! So Without Tolkien, there is no GTA V.
