Myst IV: Revelation is the fourth installment in the Myst series, developed by the French video game publisher Ubisoft. First released on September 28, 2004, it uses pre-rendered graphics and digital video, as in Myst III: Exile, but adds real-time 3D effects. The player is sent to question the sons and recover the daughter of Atrus, a man who creates links to other worlds by writing special linking books (illustration shown). Development of Revelation lasted more than three years, requiring as many as eighty Ubisoft employees. The original score was written by Exile's composer, Jack Wall. Musician Peter Gabriel lent his voice and a song to the audio. Overall, reception to the game was positive; reviewers lauded the visuals, sound, and puzzles, but some took issue with the control scheme. Revelation is the last game in the Myst series to use both pre-rendered backgrounds and full-motion video. (Full article...)
