Riven Riven

(CLICK TO SEE PICTURE)

The first sequel to Myst, Riven, was released in 1997. While the entire game of Myst was on one CD, Riven was a PC game that came with 5 CDs. I remember being so excited when I started playing it, but quickly getting SO frustrated because each time you had to move to 1 of the 5 worlds, you had to eject one CD and put in another. And there were clues on each of the five worlds that all worked together.

I see that Riven is now on sale on Steam right now for $2.39, and will buy it and have a toast in celebration of them taking that painful 5 CD game and making it into one smooth sailing download! 😍
