Riven (Gehn's "fifth
age") is the second installment in The Ages of Myst computer
game series. Improved technology made it possible for Riven to be
even more visually stunning than its predecessor, Myst . An incredible
world of inter-connected islands, breath-taking vistas, and mind-boggling
puzzles awaits the player. |

Game Description:
Riven continues the story of Myst. We are introduced to Atrus' (one
of the main characters in Myst) father, Gehn, who is a little, well,
crazy. He has kidnapped Catherine, Atrus' wife, and imprisoned her
somewhere in Riven, a place made up of several islands in the middle
of the ocean. Atrus has enlisted us to help him rescue Catherine and
capture Gehn. We must solve numerous puzzles and delve deep into D'ni
history to complete our quest. |

"Riven boasts some
of the richest, most detailed animation ever to adorn a home computer
screen.
The story will wind through every cell in your brain. You will lose
yourself in Riven."
(Time Magazine)
"Riven is probably the most spectacular looking
computer game ever made."
(U.S. News and World Report)
"Riven heralds the aesthetic convergence of
multimedia, cinema, and literature.
It's a blockbuster and a page-turner rolled into one."
