Educational Potential
RealMyst is a new writing of the 1993 Myst game.
Myst is one of the first exploratory video games in the first person, allows you to interface with objects and manipulate them. Unlike war games, it lacks a game interface. The player is on a desert island with puzzles and riddles to solve in order to make picturesque machines work.
Learning Object / Suggested activities with students
To succeed in order to return home, the player is therefore "forced" to explore these places, collecting clues and interacting with the settings in such a way that they can progress in history to the end. So the whole gaming experience is based on the stimulus of the player's intellect and his ability to solve the puzzles.
