Myst III: Exile
Myst 25th Anniversary Release
Steam Edition
We are very excited to be releasing Myst III: Exile on the day of Myst’s 25th Anniversary on Steam! Today’s release of Myst III: Exile and Myst IV: Revelation completes the 7-game Myst Collection in digital format. We hope you enjoy Myst III whether you are a first-time player or a returning player who is feeling a little nostalgic.
We have been working to ready all of the games in the Myst series for the 25th Anniversary of Myst. Most of the games in the series required compatibility updates and Myst III, like Myst and Riven, needed a little more than that to run reliably on modern day computers. So, we partnered up with the ResidualVM team and have worked closely with them to bring you this digital release version of Myst III: Exile.
Should you have something you would like to report regarding Myst III: Exile, please contact us directly at support@cyan.com. We would be happy to assist you.

[u]Known Issues:[/u]
Display settings will need to be set at 100% (default) in order to avoid the game appearing in an offset position on your display. This can be adjusted in the Scale and Layout section of the Display settings menu in Windows 10.
The cursor size stays the same when switching from windowed to fullscreen.
If the player skips a movie where Saavedro attacks the player, any movies played afterward in this instance of the game are skipped as well.
When standing in each of the rings in the Resonance Ring puzzle on Amateria you get a generic shaking of the screen. In the original version of Myst 3, each selected resonance would change the intensity of the shaking in sync with the actual resonance sound. This will be fixed in a later update.
