Now that I’ve wrapped up the original Myst built with HyperCard, I’m checking out the most recent remake from 2020. This version has free movement, so you can look and move anywhere your character would reasonably be able to. Along with the updated graphics, it makes for a very different experience. This version was also recently updated with the Rime Age that first appeared in realMyst. I’ve never experienced that area myself so I’m excited to explore it.

The Case of the Golden Idol was designed by Andrejs and Ernests Kļaviņš. The gameplay takes a lot of inspiration from Return of the Obra Dinn (easily one of my favorite games of the last decade) and I’ve heard nothing but good things about it.
The second half of Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is out this week! Nina Freeman has been working on this game as a narrative designer and writer, and I’m a big fan of her work. It’s set in Michigan in 1995! It stars four high school kids in a band! That’s exactly what I was doing then! Also there’s definitely something… weird going on??
Tape 1 left us wondering about… a lot of different things, and I can’t wait to find out more.
