You Are You (Myst)

August 25th, 2003

I’ve officially begun the beta test for Ubi Soft and Cyan, Inc’s URU : Ages Beyond Myst. From what I’ve seen so far it is indeed a beautiful place consisting of lush environments, ambient music and on the spot environment immersion.

While I can’t discuss what this game has to offer, I can say that revealing anything of the sort would “unbalance” the otherwise organic flow of the game. True to it’s Myst roots, the puzzles and interactions in the game are abstract but fit into the world in a natural and cohesive manner.

I look forward to what this game has to offer and so far it’s truly been an interesting and unique experience.

Everybody has probably figured this out, but the URL for the URU site is wrong: it’s:

uru.ubi.co...

Thanks Ken for your keen eye. :) Guess I was just in a Uri mindset. :)
