This was probably the most over-hyped crap game I ever bought.  Oh well, one of many clickboom disappointments.

This may seem simple, but iirc I believe you need the Myst cd in your cd drive for it to start up, even after you've installed it.  Make sure you have the Myst cd icon on Workbench before clicking on the harddrive icon.

I only ever tried it on my A4000 so I guess it was opening in an AGA screenmode.  I'll try it on another machine with rtg (i.e. A2000).

As for clickboom, I'm glad they did as many games as they did but they seemed to always fall short on playability. Myst simply isn't my cup of tea anyway but their 68K Quake port was dreadfully slow (there's no way I'd use it over Frank Wille/Steffen Hauser's port or BlitzQuake).  I do applaud they for doing it and I still want to some day try Capital Punishment.  I've read though that other games like Napalm, etc. are like old Psygnosis games, big on upfront presentation but low on speed and enjoyment.  imho, hyperion is/was doing a better job at porting games to the Amiga (cheap plug here).

Clickboom produced quite a few good games. T-Zero was probably the best as far as I'm concerned.


Never played T-Zero, wasn't that a platform scrolling type game?
